Hi Raj

RTFM is a relational trace file management system.  Originally released as
an add-on with 8.0.0.6, I think it now comes standard with 9i.

Cheers
Greg

Hi Regis

Delete nologging sounds like a cool feature.  I assume that nologging would
tell Oracle not to bother keeping an old image of the deleted row in the
rollback buffer, because I promise not to do a rollback.  

I RTFMed but couldn't find it.  Did a few quick trials in sqlplus, 816 on
Red Hat Linux.  Results are below.  I have two questions.

1. Nologging seemed to be generating MORE redo than normal delete. !!?
2. Was able to roll back after a delete nologging. !!?

Am I being stupid or something ?  

Oops, that's three questions.

Cheers
Greg
