However, if all the disks that you are spreading the files out among
are stripped you lose that advantage do you not?  We strip then mirror,
so we have multiple big strips and partition against that.

If it were a data or an index tablespace, laying out a tablespace across
multiple datafiles could help in striping data or partitioning. And as
Kirti said, could be to balance the I/O across multiple disks.

Other than I/O load balancing.. I can't see any other reason.

But again, why those tiny 50MB files?
Are these on the same disk? I hope not..

If there is no I/O bottleneck issues,  I would build just one 700MB file.
And then monitor how it works out..

OK, I know we had the debate already but lets have another go at it.

Say you got a tablespace, lets call it RBS and its for rollbacks.
Now, for what reason would you create a 500M file and 4 50M files
for this puppy as opposed to just one file.  I just cannot see the
reasoning
for this at all.  None.  Natta.  Zilch.

So educate me please if someone out there knows a legit reason they
would do this.

Lets assume for the sake of argument that disk size and mount point
size is not a limitation.  Space available to me on any one mount point
is unlimited.
