Hi All,

        Actually, in extreme cases ( >87000 in my case, and I had 12
tables
like that) it can cause problems with upgrading. Not sure what, but we
had to do CTAS into new tables with much larger extents to do the
upgrade from 8.1.5 to 8.1.6 here. Had Oracle support and consultants
baffled also

I still like to keep the number of extents below 500, but I'm paranoid
:)
