RE: RMAN Compression verses cold

I would to, but no, and it started at midnight. And another begins at 1:00am which wasn't an issue in the past, (it takes 3 ½ hours). This new backup only has run last night.

Just took a database from 1 ½ hours cold backup to compressed RMAN hot backup that took 4 ½ hours, (oracle version 10.2.0.1). Only one backup so far. (one Disk Channel). BTW the cold backup 'compress'ed the files also ('*.Z').

Did you monitor CPU utilization during the backup?

I would suspect it was rather high.
