At one of the Oraccle Applications User meetings, Oracle displayed the new table 
layout for the 11i version. It basically was one table with a lot of columns for the 
application that was talked about. I asked about the normalization of the data and the 
reply was in the form: it will take more disk reads to gather data from many tables 
where if the data is in one table, the heads are already in position and you get your 
data faster than multiple reads.
 For what it's worth....
