Re: Stop defragmenting and start ...

My memory is a little hazy, but I thought there were two copies of the paper. The initial one talked about implementing uniform extents (128K/4M/128M) on dictionary-managed tablespaces under Oracle 7/8. Then, it was revised for 8i to implement those same uniform extents on LMT's.
