Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Index Rebuild Tuning
Some thoughts:
1.) NOLOGGING is sure to speed things up significantly. 2.) Without nologging, you're sure to generate tons of redo. If you're = in archive log mode, are you sure you're not filling the archive log = area? If you do, the rebuild will silently hang, and take even longer. 3.) Look at V$SESSION_WAIT. What's the rebuild waiting on? If it's = not waiting on direct path read/write, then you're not sorting to disk, = so increasing SORT_AREA_SIZE will not do any good.
