More or less same sizes here.  We use multiple schemas, each application
(global area) using its own.  There is a global schema visible to 
everything else where we keep company-wide info (lookup tables, config 
tables, that sort of stuff).  Recently we had to separate one of
the areas into its own box: too much load on the original system.
Piece of cake: export schema, import into new db, create MVs for
the global schema tables, fix up grants and synonyms and away it went, 
purring like a contented cat.
Highly recommended.
