Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Rollback Segment Shrinkage Question
nope, it doesn't. Oracle only checks the size of the rollback against
optimal when you need to move from one extent within the rollback segment to
another.
You are right that when it shrinks automatically it can have a performance hit but that's usually minimal. What's important to check is to see if your rollback segments are extending and shrinking constantly. If they are, you have sized them and/or the optimal parameter incorrectly.
