That's right, Oracle seems to pull in all blocks needed to satisfy the query
you send, which makes sense.. So if you do a select * from your_table; it
should pull everything in to the buffer. One thing that you do have to
consider, is that there is enough space in your KEEP buffer pool to store
all of these tables..
Back to the root of your message though Kevin, could you not just write a
script, that does a select * from your_tables, and execute this at start-up?
How large are these tables also, AFAIK the KEEP buffer pool should really be
used for smaller, lookup or code tables..

If you fts the tables, won't Oracle just place them into the Keep pool
because it will think that it needs them?
