    Because if i have a Temporary LMT with uniform size say 10M. Then even for a small sort operation requiring say 64k of space an extent of 10M will be allocated.

    Where as in system managed LMT the first few extents allocated would of 64k, then 1M, then 8M and so on. So for a small sort of 64k only one extent of 64k will be allocated instead on 10M as in case of uniform sized Temporary LMT. And of course for larger sorts the extent size will grow accordingly from 64k to 1M to 8M and so on.
