How is your storage arranged? In general, with a database of that size, I can't 
imagine a significant performance impact from running in archivelog mode, 
unless the storage was horribly misconfigured.

Subject: archivelog performance issues

Hello:
What are the performance issues I should be aware of if I decide to enable 
archivelog mode on an OLTP database?  I just inherited this database (about 
40GB in size, ~200 users, ~2000 transactions per day), it is not in archivelog 
mode, and the manager who owns it (not well versed in Oracle) tells me that the 
previous DBA who just left did not enable archiving for database performance 
reasons.  The Oracle server is an HP DL385, dual core, with 16GB of memory. 
Is there a good reason based on performance for not enabling archivelog mode?
