I have in the past used parallel hints to speed up a count(*) kind of full
table scan query.

Hi Gurus,

In one of our insert intensive application we are inserting around 3-4
million rows / hour. Also this app needs to do a count(*) of the tables
every 10 minutes for verifying some application based logic. This is really
killing us and it takes a lot of time. 

Can you please guide me to a direction ( built in functions or something
similar). 

Actually this app is being ported from Informix. Informix can somehow keep a
trak of the count(*) of a  table in its header somewhere.

And yes I have tries count(1) , count(indexed_column) etc.


Thanks In Advance.
