Some thoughts:

1.)  NOLOGGING is sure to speed things up significantly.
2.)  Without nologging, you're sure to generate tons of redo.  If you're =
in archive log mode, are you sure you're not filling the archive log =
area?  If you do, the rebuild will silently hang, and take even longer.
3.)  Look at V$SESSION_WAIT.  What's the rebuild waiting on?  If it's =
not waiting on direct path read/write, then you're not sorting to disk, =
so increasing  SORT_AREA_SIZE will not do any good.
