There is a .pdf out on technet that speaks to uniform extents management guidelines. There are recommendations as to how many extents you should really have, extent sizes based on table sizes, etc.
Go to technet.oracle.com and select the "Internet DBA" tag on the left. Then select "Performance and Scalability" - Finally select the topic labeled "How to Stop Defragmenting and Start Living"
Hope you find this helpful -

But some had claimed that Locally managed tablespaces are slower. I do
not know if it is correct but you must consider it .
And I wonder the performance results too.
