I was thinking more along these lines ...

I have a dev system running in archivelog mode with flashback database on.  It 
appears that the flashback logs are using four times as much space as the 
archivelogs ...

  1* select * from v$flash_recovery_area_usage
SQL> /

FILE_TYPE    PERCENT_SPACE_USED PERCENT_SPACE_RECLAIMABLE NUMBER_OF_FILES
------------ ------------------ ------------------------- ---------------
CONTROLFILE                   0                         0               0
ONLINELOG                  3.91                         0               8
ARCHIVELOG                10.58                         0              23
BACKUPPIECE                   0                         0               0
IMAGECOPY                     0                         0               0
FLASHBACKLOG              43.15                     42.72             158 

Is this typical?  What ratios are others finding?

Thanks,
Duncan.

Check the V$FLASHBACK_DATABASE_LOG view 
(retention_target/estimated_flashback_size).
