Determining granulary for gathering stats on partitioned tables

edited Apr 9, 2012 4:22PM in Database Tuning (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered
I am referencing the following Oracle Documentation:
 Oracle® Database PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference
11g Release 2 (11.2)

Part Number E25788-04

I keep seeing the following:

'AUTO'- Determines the granularity based on the partitioning type. This is the default value.

But cannot find an explanation anywhere as to how Oracle determines the granularity based on the partitioning type.  I have tables with List/Hash partition/subpartitions s and just Hash partitions.  Can anyone point me to where I can find this?

Also,  we have very large tables (8-23 gig) and I am trying to determine if I should change the Stale Percentage of 10%.  Is there a rule of thumb for determining if this standard is adequate for our tables?

Howdy, Stranger!
