Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Export of IOT very slow
Interesting!
Could it be a result of bad settings for the overflow segment (you have
an overflow segment that requires a single block visits similar to the
chained rows situation for tables)?

Subject: Export of IOT very slow
Why does an IOT only allow for 1 block read at a time to extract data
during
an export. I have an IOT with 250 Million rows that takes 24 hours to
export, whereas, I have a heap table with 12 million rows that takes 6
minutes to export. If I extrapolate that out, the heap table would take
roughly 2 hours to finish with 250 million rows. I decided to trace the
processes and noticed that the IOT export will only read 1 block at a
time,
whereas the heap reads in 16 blocks at a time. Is there a way to force
the
"sequential" read to grab 16 blocks at a time?
