what happens if you try and do this without parallelisation - or with a
lower degree?

  Hi all:

  I think I have posted on this issue before, but I can't find my old
  Emails
  so - sorry for the repeated question.
  Here is the situation.  I am running oracle 9208 and have a 40G table
  with
  a lot of indices  - mostly bitmap
  Their sizes are under 1G. These indices take about 20 to 30 minutes to
  build. That seems to be too long.
  I have just waited for 24 minutes to build a 82M index. The index is
  parallelized 4 way, the table is
  parallelized 6 ways. I have 2G sga and 1.5G pga. I do see a lot of IO
  waits
  (via vmstat) and I have UNIX
  team looking into that. I think I have plenty of memory and the
  parallelizm
  should be enough for a small index.

  Any thoughts on what else I should look at?

  thank you

  Gene Gurevich
