Among some of the "Rube Goldberg" applications around here, is one that has
multiple replication clients that subscribe to a master.  For whatever
reason, we might have a client not update for a while and the MLOG table(s)
get big.  Then, after that, every update has to read up to sky-high high
water mark.  From the looking around we have done, the thing to do to get
the HWM back down without rattling replication seems to be (during a time
when we know no updates are going into the master):

lock table xyz in exclusive mode;
alter table mlog$_xyz move tablespace over_there;
alter table mlog$_xyz move tablespace back_here; (optional, I suppose)
rollback; (release the lock)

Does anyone know of any issues, pitfalls, invitation for disaster, etc. with
this?
