K., Ian, Dan - Thanks so much for your replies. This is LMT. Dan -
appreciate your running a test, no wonder "you 'da man". Now I know the
statistic to keep an eye on, and which wait table. I'm not sure how much of
a problem this is, but when my sys admin gets an idea, he hangs on like a
bulldog, and damnit he's been right a few times!

Dennis,
I did some quick & dirty testing by creating a very small(10M)
datafile with a large(2000m) autoextend clause. On the insert, the session
was waiting on 'file open' for most of the time. When I did a rollback and
reinserted the data, there were no waits (that I saw) on file open.
Interestingly, this wait event does not appear to be accurately
tracked in v$session_event. In v$session_wait the seconds in wait (last
trapped) was 132. In v$session_event, it shows 0. Okay, gurus, why? Am I
missing something in this?

Oracle says that when a file autoextends, there is a slight delay. Does
anyone know which Oracle WAIT statistic that would appear under?
We have been using autoextend on OLTP production tables for awhile now,
and the results have been satisfactory. This is an ERP system, so the
critical performance time is at month-end. Some of the developers are
concerned that table autoextending may slow batch programs, and suggesting
that I should determine which tables are likely to autoextend during
month-end and add storage beforehand. I would like to ensure that I am
fixing a real problem (short on time, like most of you), so I am wondering
if autoextend was causing a delay, what wait statistic would it show up
under. Any ideas?
