Re: Simple SQL waiting on 'log file sync'

As I just explained in my other email, it was not the Bitmap Indexes (we were suspecting that too), but the 5-column concatenated index that was causing it. Once I rebuilt it the loading went ok (at least in my tests). I have asked the application user to confirm it by running his job again.

Thanks,
Deepak
