I am conducting a couple of performance benchmarks and currently working towards ingesting ~2million metadata-only items into a DSpace 3.0 instance. One of things I intend to do is benchmark the ingestion process and I was hoping someone could help with the following queries:
1. I am guessing the Batch Metadata Editing [1] tool is appropriate in this context as opposed to using Simple Archive Format [2]; Yes? 2. Are experiments conducted to come up with the recommended line limit size of 1k specified here [2] documented anywhere and are there factors I should consider that could have a baring on this limit? In other workds, is the 1k size a standard of some sort? 3. Are there any other documented scalability performance benchmarks other than this [3]? I'd also appreciate any other comments/suggestions.
