Re: insert in batch loading

What I meant is that checkpoint occurs only when redo log switches. We set log_checkpoint_interval = 210000 and our OS block size is 512. If I increase the size of redo log to 500 MB, checkpoint will occur before log switching. Will the transaction wait until checkpoint complete during checkpoint? Thanks for your inputs.
