I see. I may have a solution for that, but this is NOT best practice. You may run the packager on individual items and significantly decrease the overhead of each command-line call (JVM startup overhead) by using Nailgun. I described how to use it with DSpace here: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Nailgun If you try, let me know how it worked out. I'm interested in how the time spent calling the packager command n-times for one item compares to calling it once on n items. And don't try this at home... ehm... actually, DO try it at home before trying it in production :) Regards, ~~helix84 Compulsory reading: DSpace Mailing List Etiquette https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Mailing+List+Etiquette ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Next-Gen Firewall Hardware Offer Buy your Sophos next-gen firewall before the end March 2013 and get the hardware for free!
