For your import, make sure you have COMMIT=Y, a buffer size of greater than
10mg. COMMIT=Y does not require extremely large rollback space. Make sure
you have a large temp area and sort area for the indexes that will be
created.
Just some thoughts from an old guy.
Thank You

Mike, don't you think it would be helpful to show us the import parameters in use?
If you are doing a conventional import then I would recommend you use a large buffer= value. If any of the exported options are unnecessary for the import such as grants then set the associated parameter off for the import: grants=n. If the target tables exist and ignore=y is in use and some of these tables are large drop the indexes so they do not have to be maintained during the table load. Either build them after or let the import rebuild them.

Subject: Import Question
Hey gang...any suggestions on how to speed up an import?
I am trying to import to a new SAP database server. Oracle 9.2.0.5 on HP-UX11i. There appears to be a lot of I/O activity, but overall I get a feeling of the system dragging.
Some DB params are:
db_cache_size =3D 2147483648 log_buffer =3D 2097152 sort_area_retained_size =3D 0 sort_area_size =3D 5242880 undo_management =3D AUTO db_writer_processes =3D 4 java_pool_size =3D 167772160
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Mike
