Redo I/O size seems much bigger the data write I/O

Hi all,
in our test machine I see that the ratio between Redo size 1M per second is much lower then the Physical write 78.1 * 8K = 624K

I wonder if it is because our load test program , or also in a typical oracle production , we'll see more redo the Physical writes .

Assuming the following :
1. no direct insert (bypassing oracle)
2. DB is in archive log (production ...)
