Hi friends,
we are running OPS in 8.1.6.0.0 on a Compaq Tru64 5.0A.
The redo log buffers are sized at 163840.
The 'redo buffer allocation retries' seem to be on a high side. The query
SQL> select inst_id,value from gv$sysstat where name='redo buffer allocation retries';

returns the following:

INST_ID VALUE
---------- ----------
2 2710
1 6911

Is it necessacry, that the log_buffers should be increased from the present value?
How does retaining the same will affect the performance?

Thanks
