Hi List,

I have a question regarding partitioning: If I want to partition a table which strategy is better, like do i have to use a value which from first day of using this table all those partion is using or just using first partion, then second etc.
E.G:
If I do partion tableA based on ID range 10000000, so for few month the only first partion of this table will be used then second partion, but if I partion it on Type (1,2,3,4,5) any record can be any of these type and from first day all of the partions will be used. Just want to check with you guys which way is better for performance? THanks for HELP>
