extents分配策略及AUTOALLOCATE碎片问题

Starting with Oracle 9i, DBAs can now create locally managed tablespaces. 

A Locally Managed TBS manages its own list of free extents in a bitmap block placed inside the header of the first data file of the tablespace. Inside the bitmap block, each bit maps to a free block in the tablespace. 
When creating a locally managed tablespace, you can specify the extent allocation method to be used.

AUTOALLOCATE - means that the extent sizes are managed by Oracle. 

Oracle will choose the optimal next size for the extents starting with 64KB. As the segments grow and more extents are needed, Oracle will start allocating larger and larger sizes ranging from 1Mb to eventually 64Mb extents. This might help conserve space but will lead to fragmentation. This is usually recommended for small tables or in low managed systems.
