Srinivas,

Do you have any indexes, constraints, triggers on this table
When trying to import.
Cause this can reduce import performance substantially.

Just to let you know, on a DELL 6450 Windoze NT Server, I get can import 2
million records per minute as long as there are no indexes or constraints
present.
Depending on the size of your server and disk speeds you should be able to
achieve good performance as long there are no indexes, constraints.

For large tables it is better to drop the indexes, constraints.
Import the data and then rebuild the indexes and enable constraints.

Make sure there is no contention for disk io between dump file and
datafiles.

Use commit=n ,make sure you have a large rollback segment online eg. BIGR.
Switch smaller rollback segments offline.

I use this useful script from Frank Naude's Orafaq.


  select substr(sql_text,instr(sql_text,'INTO "'),30) table_name,
         rows_processed,
         round((sysdate-to_date(first_load_time,'yyyy-mm-dd
hh24:mi:ss'))*24*60,1) minutes,
         trunc(rows_processed/((sysdate-to_date(first_load_time,'yyyy-mm-dd
hh24:mi:ss'))*24*60)) rows_per_min
  from   sys.v_$sqlarea
  where  sql_text like 'INSERT %INTO "%'
    and  command_type = 2
    and  open_versions > 0;


This tells me how far the import is gone.

Suhen



Hi lists,

I have a tablespace that is 600 M size, has 4 million rows.

It is taking nearly 2 hrs to finish the import.

In the meantime, I tried selecting howmany rows imported(from another
session), but every time I issue query,the result is zero. 

But after finishing the import I got the total count.

Is there anyway to see how may rows imported in that table(in the middle
or import process, from another session) ?

thnx in adv.
