Under TRUNCATE
To truncate a table or cluster, the table or cluster must be in your schema
or you must have DROP ANY TABLE system privilege.
Is this a documentation bug?

It's a DDL command. You need alter table for this. Delete any table in a DML privilege.

#3 One has to have 'delete any table' privilege to truncate someone else's
tables.
#2 Oracle does not write to the data file when the tablespace is in backup
mode.
And...
#1 High Cache Hit Ratios (in the upper 90s) are always good.
