I am setting up a new linux server (redhat 6.2 & oracle 8i 8.1.7) with a 
1Ghz Processor and 512Mb RAM. How large should individual data files in a 
tablespace be allowed to grow? I can't find any advice on this in my oracle 
manuals/books. Is there a data file size that starts to hurt oracle. I've 
got one tablespace that will have 1-1.5 Gb of data. Should I allow a 
datafile to grow to that size, or would oracle like it better if I split it 
into 3 500Mb datafiles? Likewise, how should I handle the SYSTEM 
tablespace? Should I leave it as 1 large datafile or should it be broken 
into smaller ones?
I would also like to know what good oracle email lists are available to ask 
dba related questions other than this one.

Thanks,
