Note that you could be hitting one of the multiple ASSM bugs related to
indexes. Like this one for example:

Bug # 4664513 Slow Insert - Waiting For 'log File Sync' - High 'transaction
Rollback' Stat
( Base bug# 4288876 )

You can easily diagnose it - if you see "transaction rollbacks" in V$SESSTAT
increasing without corresponding "user rollbacks" for that session (you can
use Snapper of taking snapshots). Another symptom is that you see "log file
sync" waits during inserts even if you are not committing (as the session
waits for log file sync when a transaction rollback happens as well).
