The statistics include the following:
• The segment size of the index.
• The number of segments in the table.
• The number of distinct values for the index.
• The number of virtually deleted values (values that are no longer recognized by query
indexes.)
• The percentage of virtually deleted values.
• The number of values that require segment lists (a value that is in only one segment
does not require a segment list).
• The number of segment list chunks for all values of the index.
