Bingo!  We have three "lower" environments in one database for Dev/Test/QA
and Prod has ERP system and metadata in multiple schemas in the same DB as
production data (makes for interesting shared pool patterns and
backup/recovery scenarios).

Plus, the table and index layouts will usually differ between Production and
the other three, meaning that I need to keep or recreate them after a data
copy or JDEdwards will bark loudly.

So, it seems that exp/imp (or my new favorite expdp/impdp) is the way to go.
 And I've done a few things like manual parallelism (multiple concurrent
exp/imp) to help speed up the process.

Thanks!
Rich
