Re: Change the timeout value for DBWR process

How about the log files? Have you check to see if the redo logfiles is too small? A log switch will also cause a checkpoint and cause the DBWR to write the data to the disk. Do check the log files. If not, check to see if your database buffer cache is too small (check the db_buffer parameter in the init.ora file). If it is too small and there is too many transactions on the system, the DBWR need to read in new data all the time.

hope this can help
