From what I understand of these options, the real concern would be a. Can you identify _which_ updates [insert/update/delete etc] did not go into the redologs in case of instance failure / media failure b Can the application re-apply only those specific missing transactions after restart / recovery.

Hi JonathanI forgot to mention that this is a insert intensive application so 3 seconds would not apply I guess. The insert rate is around 1000 to 2000 per seconds.I guess the upper bound would be 1/3 log buffer 3 seconds when the log buffer is full no?

Of course, if you had a long running transaction that took three hours to complete, and the COMMIT for that transaction was in that three seconds, then the three hours would be rolled back on recovery.
