I ran showcontig statement on the same database few times and found logical and extent fragmenation changes on each occasion. Quite abnormally I found auto improvement without doing any maintenance. The sample below shows results of the same table on consecutive days(day1, day2). How can you explain this situation
Day1 ( First day)
Table: 'WORKPERMIT' (142115747); index ID: 1, database ID: 15
TABLE level scan performed.
- Pages Scanned................................: 274

- Extent Switches..............................: 35
- Avg. Pages per Extent........................: 7.6
