Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Speed up Truncate tables
Chuan,
Are you sure you were using the TRUNCATE TABLE command rather than DELETE It sounds as if you are running a delete, especially if the HWM was not shrunk

Subject: Speed up Truncate tables
Hi All,
Is there any way to speed up the truncating a big table with 12 million rows?
Basically, I implemented truncating that big table on Production, but it affected the performance much, so I had to stop it in the middle of way. All the rows were truncated but the HWM was not shrunk at all. I want to do it again to get the space back. Is there any way to speed up this process?
Platform: Oracle EE8.0.6 and Solaris 2.7
Thanks a lot in advance.
Chuan
