Are you rebuilding indexes with unrecoverable/nologging and parallel clause 
or simple 'alter index index_name rebuild tablespace tbs_name', which is 
definately slow then using above options....500/600MB indexes may take 
around 30/35 minutes depending of your parallel clause and cpu 
availability...
