Hello All, I have a non-partitioned table with 20 millions records and growing. Every night a pl/sql stored procedures deletes around 1 million rows 10,000 at a time.Currently it is taking aroung 1 hour to delete 1 million messages. Is there any way I can make deletes faster. I need good suggestions. I have already tried all the obvious init.ora parameters like make_delete_faster=true but they do not seem to work.:-)
