Well you can STILL choose the initial/next values for a locally managed tablespace, so 
choose a reasonable one.

I have always been concerned with fragmentation of tablespaces, whether it
be lots of extents, honeycomb or
bubble fragmentation. Now I am reading that in Oracle 8i with the use of
locally-managed table spaces,
these concerns are a thing of the past as Oracle now uses bit maps within
the tablespaces themselves to
do space management. This seems foreign to me that even though Oracle will
use up all the space in
the tablespaces with no coalescing,  it is OK that extents will go into the
thousands with no performance degradation.
Could folks who are currently using locally managed tablespaces please
comment on how well it
is working for them and if they have experienced any problems in using them.
Thanks

 Here is a good white paper on the subject.
