众所周知，随着不断地进行表记录的DML操作，会不断提高表的高水位线（HWM），DELETE操作之后虽然表的数据删除了，但是并没有降低表的高水位，除非你使用TRUNCATE操作，进行表查询的时候，Oracle会扫表高水位以下的数据块，也就是说，扫描的时间并不会有所减少。所以DELETE删除数据以后并不会提高表的查询效率。
下面通过这个例子，用来解决高水位引起的查询变慢问题：
--例子中测试表占用表空间大小为：128M
SQL> SELECT a.bytes/1024/1024 || 'M' FROM user_segments a WHERE a.segment_name = 'TC_RES_PHY_EQP_PRO_MID_517';
A.BYTES/1024/1024||'M'
-----------------------------------------
128M
--查询一条记录成本为：4357，一致性读为：15730 耗时 0.53 秒
SQL> set autotrace on
SQL> SELECT 1 FROM TC_RES_PHY_EQP_PRO_MID_517 a WHERE a.obj_id = 17202000000001;

当然ENABLE ROW MOVEMENT对系统性能也有影响，在TOM的博客中找到这个关于ROW MOVEMENT的问答：
You Asked
Hi Tom
I have seen your posting on ENABLE ROW MOVEMENT which is available in 10g. It looks a
very nice option since we can relocate and reorganize the heap tables without any outage
since it does not invalidate indexes. But is there any performance hit or any other
disadvantages for using this. I would like to use this in our new application.

Anil
and we said...
Well, the tables have to be in an ASSM (Automatic Segment Space Managment) tablespace for
this to work (so if they are not, you have to move them there first in order to do this
over time).
It will necessarily consume processing resources on your machine while running (it will
read the table, it will delete/insert the rows at the bottom of the table to move them
up, it will generate redo, it will generate undo).
I would suggest benchmarking -- collect performance metrics about the table before and
after performing the operation. You would expect full scans to operate more efficiently
after, you would expect index range scans to either be unchanged or "better" as you have
more rows per block packed together (less data spread). You would be looking for that to
happen -- statspack or the tools available in dbconsole would be useful for measuring
that (the amount of work performed by your queries over time)
也就是说，ENABLE ROW MOVEMENT也会有副作用，因为表打开行迁移之后，如果对数据进行UPDATE操作，那么系统会对数据进行DELETE操作
之后再进行INSERT操作，导致产生更多的redo和undo，并且rowid也会发生变化。
附行迁移和行连接的解释：
row chain：When a row is too large to fit into any block, row chaining occurs. In this case, the Oracle devide the row into smaller chunks. each chunk is stored in a block along
with the necessary poiters to retrive and assemble the entire row.
row migration：when a row is to be updated and it cannot find the necessary free space in its block, the Oracle will move the entire row into a new block and leave a pointer from the orginal block to the new location. This process is called row migration.
