I am using Oracle 11g (11.1) on HP UNIX 11i. I have set some tables
using
Alter table mytable compress for all operations;

Lots of data is being inserted into this table. I want to find how
much disk space was reduced because of compression. I cannot take all
this data and create another table without compression and then try to
compare the disk space for two. Does Oracle provide any tools to find
how much compression was done?
