AFAIK the Select in a Create Table statement is treated exactly the same as
if it were issued by itself. The Optimizer will decide whether or not
indexes on the Selected tables are used.
Is the Table being created in a tablespace on the same drive as the source
table(s) or, worse, on the drive with the temp tablespace or rollback
segment(s)? You could be experiencing disk contention.

Does CREATE TABLE AS SELECT ..... still use indexes or are the
indexes disregarded if the select is issued in combination with
a create table?
Oracle 8.0.5, optimizer is CHOOSE.
We are having a performance problem when trying to use create
table as select.
