As we now in case of a table with BLOBs in the actual table row only a reference to the BLOB is stored.
In order to get the real table size of my table ‘MY_BLOB_TABLE’ including the refereed BLOBs the following query holds in Oracle:
SELECT sum( bytes)/1024/1024 size_in_MB
FROM user_segments
WHERE (segment_name = 'MY_BLOB_TABLE'
OR segment_name in (
SELECT segment_name FROM user_lobs
WHERE table_name = 'MY_BLOB_TABLE'
UNION
SELECT index_name FROM user_lobs
WHERE table_name = 'MY_BLOB_TABLE'
)
);
thanks very much
