If you want to reduce the amount of time to check for block corruptions, there are several approaches. These can be used individually or combined. 1) Only check the files for system, rollback and data tablespaces. Indexes can be rebuilt and temp can be ignored.
2) Break up the checking so you do 1/7 of the datafiles each night. This achieves checking all during the week without hitting the files all at one time.
3) If there are read only tablespaces, check them once and forget them.
