I have a target database 9.2.0.3 that is being backed up by rman (9.2.0.3). It is very slow. I have a 60G database and it is taking 5 hours.

When I log into rman to just do a crosscheck archivelog command it is taking over an hour. This seems to be the bottleneck.

I checked metalink and it said it could be due to a bug but has no workaround.

Has anyone else experienced this? Were you able to fix this?
