Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Determine process of index build - HOW
George,
I'm not going to answer your question (since it already has been), but here are some ways to speed up the index builds:
Using these things together has made a huge improvement. One index build was running for over 8 hours. After changing these things (using 500MB for the sort area size since the machine had the available RAM) and the build ran in 10 minutes! This was on a table with over 30 million rows.
Good luck.
