Juan,
Unfortunately, that solution requires that you have enough disk space to
hold an entire copy of production, not to mention the archive logs that will
be generated by deleting data.
I'm looking for clever solutions to this problem. I suppose writing your
own referentially-correct ETL from Production to Test is one way. That's
sort of what the DataBee product does, I think. Subsetting a production DB
for test would be an excellent new feature for 10g!

You can delete records, and make this faster, and export import statistics
to get performance test more accurate to reality.

I know many of you have addressed this same issue...
What is a good method to create a smaller test database from Production?
I've read about the commercial product called DataBee for doing this, but
what other methods are you guys using? With all of the expertise in this
list, there are bound to be some interesting solutions.
