    Allocating too many extents in table

    All,
    I am using the below oracle version.

    SQL> select * from v$version;

    BANNER
    ----------------------------------------------------------------
    Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.6.0 - 64bit Production
    PL/SQL Release 9.2.0.6.0 - Production
    CORE 9.2.0.6.0 Production
    TNS for IBM/AIX RISC System/6000: Version 9.2.0.6.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 9.2.0.6.0 - Production

    SQL>

    One of my table, it is growing 5000 extents every day. I mean, oracle allocating too many extents every day. I wanted, not to allocate serveral extents. How can i avoid this? Can i change the next_exent or PCT_INCREASE. The tablespace is LMT. This table is partition table.

    1 select INITIAL_EXTENT,NEXT_EXTENT,PCT_INCREASE from dba_segments where owner='QUOTE'
    2* and segment_name ='INVENTORY'
    SQL> /

    INITIAL_EXTENT NEXT_EXTENT PCT_INCREASE
    -------------- ----------- ------------
    65536


    Please advise....

    Thanks

    Create a new LMT tablespace with uniform extent size of 50M and move the table.
