Good point Ravi, thanks.

Obviously, the problem is in secondary indexes. They are handled in END TRANSACTION STEP. I never thought of that. As they are not partitioned, naturally, they need to be treated differently than the partitioned base table.

So elementary, dear Watson.

I made a small test and it was proving. Deleting partitions on a table with no SI is much less costly in terms of IOs and CPU.

Thanks for your ideas.

Tomas
