Hi,
    For cache of table : does it need to be specified at CREATE TABLE stage 
only. Also does cache mean it will stay in memory forever (like PIn/KEEP of 
PL/SQL in shared Pool) or is there a case when it will get aged out. Thanks for 
your help. Yes. there is an option with : ALTER TABLE xxxx CACHE. However below 
is what documentation says :
   
  CACHE | NOCACHE  Use the CACHE clauses to indicate how Oracle should store 
blocks in the buffer cache. If you specify neither CACHE nor NOCACHE:
    
   In a CREATE TABLE statement, NOCACHE is the default   
   In an ALTER TABLE statement, the existing value is not changed.
