John,
First question, how do you know that your application is rule based? Most
application scan be switched to cost optimization with no changes, although I
will admit performance sometimes goes south. I prefer to set the database to
'choose' mode which allows the best of both worlds.

I am new to the world of partitioning. 816 on W2K. In a white paper on
metalink "How to Implement Partitioning in Oracle Versions 8 and 8i " it
states that "The RULE-based optimizer does not take the partitioning of
tables and
indexes into account."
My question is - if your application is still rule based is there any value
to partitioning? Some of the tables are over 30 million rows and 5G. If my
understanding is correct I wouldn't see any performance improvement but
would make maintenance simpler.
