There are 3 main things you can do to help reduce waits on "log file sync":

- Tune LGWR to get good throughput to disk . eg: Do not put redo logs on RAID 5.

- If there are lots of short duration transactions see if it is possible to BATCH transactions together so there are fewer distinct COMMIT operations. Each commit has to have it confirmed that the relevant REDO is on disk. Reducing the overall number of commits by batching transactions can have a very beneficial effect.

- See if any activity can safely be done with NOLOGGING / UNRECOVERABLE options.

Hope that helps,
