Either I misunderstand you or I disagree. If there's a huge chunk of space near the end, and many many smaller spaces spread throughout, what I'd like is for rows to be placed in those small ones. This would minimize the number of pages to read for queries, and would present some possibility that the rows past the huge chunk might eventually be deleted or non-HOT updated, allowing the bloat to eventually be cleaned up with minimal pain. -Kevin
