Oracle Design
by Dave Ensor and Ian Stevenson


Here is the change from the 9/98 reprint:


{220} replaced the three bullet items with the following:

* 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).
