BTW, this is a good case for why the storage order should - directly or
indirectly - be tweakable. You can either optimize for space, and _then_
for speed - which is what the OP did I think - or first for speed, and
then for space. If the dba cannot choose the strategy, there will
always be workloads where the engine does it the wrong way around.
Maybe a simple setting on ordering strategy would be OK. The chance of
mucking it up if you can directly set the physical order seems just too
great to me.
