There is no rollback on DROP either. Please check for number of extents of such tables , if it is having a lot of small extents like 200/300 it takes longer for both truncate and drop of tables. Regards

Larry,

It's because of the rollback, probably.

It would be quicker to truncate the tables first and then drop them after they have been truncated. There is no rollback
on truncate.
