I think Burt was asking if the size will be maintained or not. I think yo=
ur
tables will be resized to 16k because the export, unless you indicate not=
to do
it, will compress them in one extension. As, I suppose, your default init=
ial
will be more than 16k (2*block_size) the your tables will be create with =
an
initial (and unique) extension of 16k.
