Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Are snapshot logs purged?
Once the fast refresh has completed the records from the mlog$ table should be deleted. This should happen automatically as long as there aren't two snapshots depending on the data. The high water mark on the table will continue to grow which will cause your refreshes to slow down over time. We had a job that ran late at night that would select from the mlog$ table to see if there was data in it. If there wasn't we would truncate the mlog$ table to reset the high water mark.
