Is there an optimal size for an export file?

in Database Utilities (MOSC) 10 commentsAnswered ✓

I have a database enterprise edition 19CR25 running on enterprise RH7.

I have been tasked with exporting a table that is 1.376 T in size. I have run tests with smaller tables and have the script running fine but now that I am about to do the final tests with real data, I am wondering if there is an optimal size for the dmp file.

This is the script I am running:

expdp system/password tables=NSPIRES_PROD.ASSIGNED_RESPONSE DIRECTORY=DATA_PUMP_DIR logfile=expdp_AssignedResponse.log parallel=3 job_name=expAssignedResponse filesize=50G

Howdy, Stranger!
