Extents
Adaptive Server pages are always allocated to a table, index, or LOB structure. A block of 8 pages is called an extent. The size of an extent depends on the page size the server uses. The extent size on a 2K server is 16K where on an 8K it is 64K, etc. The smallest amount of space that a table or index can occupy is 1 extent, or 8 pages. Extents are deallocated only when all the pages in an extent are empty.
