[Quoted] Don't agree on autoextent; adding datafiles manually is even more
firefighting,
but let's leave that for discussions at the fireplace, over a good glass,
enjoying
a fine cigar...
[Quoted] I opt for: initial: 16k (twice your blocksize: 1 header, 1 datablock)
reason: small (reference kind of) tables fit nicely in 1 initial extent.
next: depends on your largest tables, anything from 128k to 1280k to 12M,
but keep
it with just two or three tops.
Reason: allocating extents is perfomance releated.
pctincrease: 0; reason better performance (what's easier for the Oracle
process:
building a house with similar shaped stones or all different?)
[Quoted] Fragmentation, or extents ar enot worrying (anymore, since 7.3), nor bad for
performance.
[Quoted] Allocating extents is bad for performance...
[Quoted] I don't understand your 5 files... either these were made too big to start
with, or
for some reason, only file 5 is being used. With autoextent ON, why bother
having 5 files
for one tablespace??? Or is maxsize set as well? What was the reason for
having 5 datafiles
for one tablespace?
[Quoted] BTW, 505 extents max is default for 8k (249 for 4k, 121 for 2k blocksize) Which brings up: why go for 8k? OLTP has 2k - 8k, DSS/DW 8k - 32k. 8k seems hybrid.
