Hi,

I have segments (Tables and indexes) which go into 500 MB -- 1 GB . I intend to do a rebuild since they are fragmented.

Is it beneficial to have a single extent of 500 Mb or multiple extents are ok ? (maybe 4 --5)

My contention is that so long as the extents are contiguous ( I could do a rebuild) the number do not matter
so long as they are not too high.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks
