Re:

I've really cut the import parameters to the bone.

indexes=n triggers=n constraints=n Buffer=20971520 Commit=y . . . and just for the hell of it I switched on feedback=20000 the last time around.

As no indexes are being built, will an increase in sort area size change anything?

Redo logs are now 1gb each and there are 5 groups. All data is on netapp.

This is a stand alone audit table being imported into an instance that was built out of standard scripts but will house only this table.

Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
