A lot of the back-end code of DSpace, the very core of it, is inherently inefficient. Several tasks are executed more than once, and entire objects are created when only one attribute is needed, etc. (I'd be more specific, but I'm not a specialist on this matter, and our resident DSpace developer is on leave this week.) I am really glad to hear from other people with problems similar to ours. -- Tom De Mulder <[email protected]> - Cambridge University Computing Service +44 1223 3 31843 - New Museums Site, Pembroke Street, Cambridge CB2 3QH ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances and start using them to simplify application deployment and accelerate your shift to cloud computing. http://p.sf.net/sfu/novell-sfdev2dev _______________________________________________ DSpace-tech mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-tech
