Parallel Query Instant Gratification?

I'm going to be installing parallel query and striping several very large
tables with it. I'll be reading up on it more on the weekend so forgive

me if this sounds lazy.. but what's a real quick way I can see an immense
performance gain without clogging up the experiment with 1 million rows of output going somewhere. Maybe a cursor? Is there a way to force a full table scan without actually returning anything to see improvements in
time? Maybe something like select * from largetable where pk = 0+1-1? I'm looking to prove an improvement very quickly and easily. I thought doing a full table scan without returning anything before and after the table
has been striped and made parallel would help me sleep better. Any thoughts
for quick experiments?
