Quite possibly.

In the absence of any other directive, the continuous
checkpointing mechanism sets the effective size of
log_checkpoint_interval to 90% of the smallest log
file.  This means you could get a LOT more dirty
blocks in the buffer if you increase the size of the redo
log dramatically.  Since the database shutdown (other
than abort) requires a database checkpoint, you would
then spend more time writing those blocks to disc.

Subject: Increasing redo size, increases shutdown time

Hi, does this afirmation makes sense?
After I increased redologs to 200mb, to test time of archive, I found
the time to shutdown increased to, and it was not switching.

Is there some correlation?

Thank you
