Hi.
You cal use ALTER TABLE command to change NEXT extent value, but
in order to increase the INITIAL extent you must either change your
scripts or DROP and CREATE table again.
You have to compute INITIAL extent size based on avg. row size, number
of rows in table, db block size etc.
I usually define NEXT extent as 30%-40% of INITIAL.
