Hi, The normal problem when the Oracle database grows out of proportion, it has to do with if CLOB-data is defined to be stored outside row (default) instead of inside row.
You can check your ar.cfg/conf for Oracle-Clob-Storage-In-Row:T. If not found, you have the default ouside row that creates an enormous data overhead. Here is a BMC document describing the differences and SQL-code to convert existing tables to In-Row: http://documents.bmc.com/supportu/documents/96/63/89663/89663.pdf Best Regards - Misi, RRR AB, http://rrr.se > My DBA is doing a refresh of the Production DB to my Test Server.
