Yes, this one will get a lot of traffic, I'll bet.

I just looked in the 8.1.7 docs (SQL Reference - Storage Clause) and it says that the minimum INITIAL is 2 DB blocks for non-bitmapped segments, 3 for bitmapped segments. The minimum for NEXT is 1 DB block.

Unlesss it's a new 9i feature, a DB block can belong to one and only one Extent.

I am confused. Are you talking of multiple extents in a block? Throws my fundamentals topsyturvy.
