I suggest you call your DBA right now and ask what he recommends for a primary extent size.

So? With storage capacity going up and costs going down who cares how large it is? The question is how they get it, where they get it, and what they do with it? Personally, I would rather this administration have all the known information in the universe than for the Clintons to have those FBI files. It all boils down to how honest and honorable those who run this country are. That is why we are a nation of laws, not men. (Supposedly)

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency says in its documents that it is trying to design software that could access and analyze an unprecedented amount of data, ``measured in petabytes.'' When the story about TIA broke I figured it would be multi-petabyte. I work with stuff in the multi-terabyte range and that's pretty dang large.

petabytes How much space does a petabyte take up? We know megabyte, gigabyte, terabyte, and now the new word petabyte. A petabyte is just a million CDs. AOL mails out that much every day. No big deal. After petabyte is exabyte, from the Greek prefix exo- meaning excess.
