Are they local indexes?
How about importing into another table, add the indexes and use exchange
partition, it's probablly your best bet?
I don't know if you would be able to import right into the table by marking
the local index unusable.

Subject: Huge import takes a long time


I've got a massive import that takes a long time. This is one I'd love to
drop and recreate the index, but that alone would probably be almost a
terabyte, so that is out of the question.

This is a table partitioned by month and a normal partition is about
20-24GB. As it's coming in, it's getting a lot of I/O wait on the index
datafiles, but only the datafiles of that partition. The index is also
partitioned.

This is now 9.2.0.6, so just how high can you set up the buffer?

Are there any other "tricks"?

As I get to the "end" of the partition my import rate is getting to be 2-3GB
per day.

Yuck!!!
