Its not a problem with LMT's - thats for sure:
SQL> create table blah ( x number) tablespace users
storage ( minextents 1000 );
Table created.
SQL> select count(*) from dba_extents where
segment_name = 'BLAH';
COUNT(*)
----------
1000
SQL> set timing on
SQL> drop table blah;
Table dropped.
Elapsed: 00:00:00.08
