Beth - Are you asking because you are experiencing a corruption problem, or because you're having a paranoid Monday? ;-) I believe the overhead is enough that you wouldn't turn them on "just because". But if you are experiencing occasional corruption, you could tolerate quite a bit of overhead.

Hi everybody,

I'm soliciting opinions on whether or not its a good practice to enable DB_BLOCK_CHECKING and DB_BLOCK_CHECKSUM. How much overhead is associated?

TIA, Beth
