Yes. it is part of the primary key. When I dropped the pk, the timing decreased significantly.

thank you

Is "column" involved in the primary key? This is not clear from your question.

  I am trying to tune the following update:

  update TABLE set column  = decode (column, vlaue1..);

  The TABLE has about 13mil rows and a primary key. I am thinking of   dropping
  the PK and running the update
  with higher degree of parallelism and rebuilding the PK after the update.   Is there anything else I should consider?   I am running oracle 10.2.0.2

  thank you
