* For each tablespace, always set PCTINCREASE to zero, because any
other value is liable to cause tablespace free space fragmentation.
* For each tablespace, set the values of INITIAL and NEXT equal to each
other.
* For objects within a tablespace, do not ordinarily specify the
INITIAL, NEXT, or PCTINCREASE values (allow them to be inherited from
the tablespace).

binding is used.
