On "collect histograms", any thoughts on using the AUTO keyword when specifying 
the number of buckets?

(Sorry...a little behind here -- migrated to 9.2.0.5 this weekend)

TIA,

-          Collect histograms for skewed data. For example, if you tell CBO 
that an attribute with domain cardinality 2 has uniformly distributed values, 
then CBO will make dumb decisions if the real distribution is 99/1 instead of 
50/50.
