As far as DDL is concerned ,Yes. I have seen Dataware House application(not a good design) that dropping/truncating tables with lot of extents takes longer time because of extent management. Such code must take into account no of extents of such objects. If those objects are created with proper sizing then it will perform better for any DDL. Regards

And would that only count for an object in a dictionary managed tablespace? Would the time/speed it takes for drops and truncates really matter as far as performance is concerned? What I mean is who would set storage specs for objects with the speed it takes for truncates and drops of that object in mind? It would seem to me that if an object is getting dropped or truncated that often that speed should be an issue, there are bigger problems at hand. Guru's correct me if I'm wrong please.

Try it. There was a test result 1 year back by a list member on that.

There is no notable performance different with a table with 10,000 extents and one with 1. The only problem is when it comes to the bitmaps when dealing with LMT and cluster when dealing with dictionary managed. When you query the extent views, or do space management type processes.

Some people say that it'd be good to use 128K, 4M and 128M extents. I saw somewhere it'd be 160K, 4M and 160M. Which size do you advice me ? I have also many small indexes (less than 16K).
