Hi,
DG was not able to scale upto this level. We tried combination of parallel threads starting from 8 threads upto 64 . We got best perf with 32 threads. Will review the suggested docs .  
Thanks
Kapil

Hi,

Why you are not using DataGuard ? in that case you can use real time apply and it can work better than applying archive logs. From other side - did you ever try to check why standby is performing poor ? you can use v$system/session_event and try to figure out where Oracle is loosing time. It can be issue with applying logs but it can be issue with DBWR doing checkpoint as well. I have seen case where MRP was able to apply log in 20 s but checkpoint took 40 s.
