Datapump export took about 15 minutes. Problem is with datapump import. Tables and indexes gets imported within reasonable time (about hour) but table statistics takes very long time. Import process stays at following for about more than three hours Processing object type DATABASE_EXPORT/SCHEMA/TABLE/STATISTICS/TABLE_STATISTICS Is there any way to exclude table statistics? (similar to STATISTICS=N in old export) Any help is appreciated. Thank you Mayen Confidentiality Note: This message contains information that may be confidential and/or privileged.
