what version? Hopefully you are employing  batch commits.

from 11.2 
docs<http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16638/memory.htm#PFGRF94347>

*A reasonable first estimate for such systems is to the default value, which
is:*
* *

*MAX(0.5M, (128K * number of cpus))*

* *

*On most systems, sizing the log buffer larger than 1M does not provide any
performance benefit. Increasing the log buffer size does not have any
negative implications on performance or recoverability. It merely uses extra
memory.*


You definitely should look for more convincing evidence (redo related wait
events) before you go ahead and start tuning log_buffer size
