I am just reading the chapter "Instance Tuning-The Redo Log Buffer and Miscellaeous 
Tuning" from Performance Tuning 101.  I'll digest that and then act.  I am not in a 
desparate situation and don't want to just cahnge things for the sake of just changing 
them.  RTFM first, hose things up later!!

Thanks,

Dave

But are you getting unreasonable wait times for the buffer?

My LOG_BUFFER = 32768

This seems a bit small.

No it does not - but the 'redo log space requests'
(imho) is not a good stat for log buffer space sizing,
since its common to get this number going up when you
switch logs (because briefly everyone is told 'hands
off the log buffer'). 

I prefer the 'log buffer space' wait in
v$system_event, v$session_event.  Its rare in
"typical" systems for a log buffer over (say)
512-1024k to provide any benefit.
