How long the defragmentation take?

I have a Dell Inspiron with Windows Vista, and I started a defragmentation of disk more than twelve hours ago. Is this normal? The PC is fairly new (3 months) and am the only owner and user of it. This is the first time I've run a defragmentation; It is supposed to occur every Wednesday night, but I'm not sure it has been done. How long should I wait before cancelling the defragmentation, if I have to cancel all?

Hello

The defragmenter in Windows Vista is intended to be run in the background and may take a loooooooooooooong
time as you have noticed.

Here are excellent free 3rd defragmenters party which I use.

    A similar copy we did recently in version 11.1.2.3, it took us less than an hour. However, the time is related to the performance of the database and the performance of the server.

  • How long it will take to fix the scroll of queries in sensitive sites?

    I really like this update with delicate design but I wasn't able to use queries of scrolling that I used a lot of www.mscmediaunit.com
    I saw a similar question that adobe is working on it. Please tell me how long will it take? Will be fixed in about a month or it will take a while?

    It depends on many factors:

    -How users respond to such sensitive things;

    -the unexpected number of bugs need get it fixed;

    -What other features does the team has in mind...

    All this and perhaps many other things affect the determination of the list of priorities, and the list could change over time. Therefore, it is very difficult to tell what next step is taken, and what it will include. It's a work in progress, and in the meantime users work with it! That's what customers seem to prefer, instead of waiting for much longer until this that all involved was executed perfectly...

    yesterday I signed up for and bought the version of CC student and I was wondering how long it could take since I didn't have many options of audit with the exception of some kind of e-mail account of the school, which I did not, the name of the school and the location and postal code. My second question would be: how - what is checked then because it does not require to provide me Adobe with a scan of my school ID card? (Which I would be happy to send!).

    I looked through the FAQ and have not found much response I am pleased for all those who can share their experiences or help me with this.

    I would like to stop the process and try again. This time, in order to minimize the effect on users:

    First create a non-unique index, the online help (assuming that you have Enterprise Edition). You can improve the performance of this astronomical by disabling the automatic management of the PGA TOUR for your session and you give a 2G sort_area_size (I don't think you can go higher than that with 10g).

    Then, add the active constraint not validated.

    Thirdly, detecting duplicate or NULL values and fix them.

    That's it: no interruption of service.

    And I should say: query v$ session_longops and you can have an idea of how long it will take.
