Try "shutdown abort", takes about 2 seconds...works for me (ROFLOL)
If you are doing a "shutdown" or "shutdown normal" (same things) then
Oracle waits for all sessions to disconnect, flushes everything, and
checkpoints the database, could be a long wait.
If you are doing a "shutdown immediate" then all sessions will be
terminated, uncommitted transactions rolled back, the buffer cache needs to
be flushed, and the database will be checkpointed. Can take awhile if your
checkpoints are spaced far apart.
If you do a "shutdown abort" be aware that cache recovery must be done on
instance startup so startup may take a few minutes, again depending how
long your checkpoints are spaced.
(Trying to remember all of the above from memory, and I'm getting old. So
if any of it is incorrect, remember, the consulting fee cost $0.00)

Please respond
to ORACLE-L
Does any know why it takes too long (about 40 minutes) to shutdown oracle
database? I am running oracle8.0.5 on solari5.6. It usually just takes me
few minutes to shutdown.
Thanks,
David
