Andrey,
It will not be in the memory until the 1st time you read the blocks in.

Subject: Re: Segments storage in memory
HI All & thanks !
I've done :
create table XXX ( a number ) storage (buffer_pool keep ) cache ;
Where is it placed now ? In db_block_buffers or outside of them ?
My goal is to keep the entire table in memory and possibly never let it age
out .
What is the best option to use ?
Thanks a lot .
