Honestly, the only problem would be if the Oracle Optimizer behaved the same way in the Dev and the QA machine!!!


from the Manual (Oracle Perf Management Guide), you can do this (in Oracle9 and 10; not sure if 8 has this, but I guess not):


Statistics can be exported and imported from the data dictionary to user-owned tables. This enables you to create multiple versions of statistics for the same schema. It also enables you to copy statistics from one database to another database. You may want to do this to copy the statistics from a production database to a scaled-down test database.
