What is the transaction size? Is only a single commit being done at the end or is every row being committed?

Looking at the UNDO/Rollback configuration might be worthwhile.

I am issuing an insert, or an update from a 7.3.4 database, through a Dblink to a 8.1.7 database which only contains synonyms and dblinks, no tables. The 8.1.7 database in turn sends the update to a 9.2 database to update the table. This is being done to get around the 7.3.4-9.2 incompatibility problem.

Thanks!
Ron

Ron, You did not specify how the data is passed on from database 2 to database 3 such as directly and immediately via another link, or indirectly via a trigger on a table via another database link or batch processing. That makes it a little hard to identify the problem. The various Oracle versions for each database might also be of interest.

I suggest that the next time you run the process that since it takes 1.5 hours that you connect to each database (or coordinate with local DBA) and monitor each session. You should be able to get an idea of which of the 3 databases is the problem. Running concurrent traces on each database for 5 or 10 minutes might go a long way in identifying the problem.

I have a process that sends data through a dblink to an intermediate database and then on to another database. The first database is blocked at 4096, the second is at 8192, the third at 8192. Response is slow (5000 rows in 1.5 hours. Could the difference in block size be a factor?

Thanks!
Ron
