But those holes of exactly the right size for new objects to fit into.
Since you'll presumably move it once it gets about 1,000 extents or so that
isn't a huge amount of space that's being wasted.

My criticism of the defrag paper was that it did not address what to do when
a segment grew large enough to belong in a tablespace with a larger uniform
extent size. Moving the segment creates holes in its original tablespace
which may close only in the fullness of time. Physical backups of the files
comprising the original tablespace include this wasted space, this is
compounded by how many days backup you keep available, and the number of
copies of backups.
