As far as LONG, etc. column types are concerned if they do not have to = be retrieved every time the other part of the row is retrieved (e.g. = when a query is evaluating the where clause expression which can not = include LONGs) you have significant gain in performance if you put LONG = in another table (not necessary as you pointed out in the tablespace) - = the LONGS would be read only for the presentation of the result set if = necessary.
