In my opinion, you have either misunderstood some advice, or you have been advised by someone who doesn't understand what they're talking about.
Redo logs are filled as your application does work. Once a single log is full, it is copied to the archive area, and the log is then available to be reused again.
You can issue the command 'Alter System Switch Logfile' to force this behaviour before a redo log is full, but that will not mystically speed up your system.
If your log files are filling up and switching too frequently, it might be worth making them larger.
It would be worth your while thatking @user52s advice and generating statspack reports for your Db - these will show you the amount of Redo that you generate, and show you a variety of places where tuning might be effective.
