We are building a new version 9.0.1 data warehouse on Sun Solaris 2.6
migrating to Solaris 2.8.  We will be using striped disk that is striped
using Veritas Volume Manager on EMC disk.

The datawarehouse will be about 200 Gig.   It will be written to throughout
the day.

To this point, almost all of our databases have been created with an 8k
block size.   i'm not sure if that blocksize is optimal anymore.   With 9i,
what block sizes are people using in the field nowadays for data
warehouses?

Also, if you use striped disk, what stripe size are you using and why?

Thanks for weighing in on this topic.
