    drop , truncate taking long...

    Hi

    Q-1: there is nothing running on system. oracle db looks okay. tried to drop table which has 3000 rows. it took almost 48sec for it.

    Q-2: system is idle. tried to truncate very same table , it took 36 sec.

    Any idea ?

    thanks

    truncate shouldn't take long ( atleast that's what i always remembered )

    even truncate table for table with 1000 rows takes long

    any guess...
