ah, ok... so we could possibly use the turbomarc format internally within koha, and just transform it to marcxml for writing out to zebra, when needed sounds do-able :) i guess we would need to patch MARC::File::XML, to correctly parse a turbomarc record? fyi: according to this url, turbomarc parsing is 4-5 times faster that marcxml. so its definitely something to have a look at :) http://www.indexdata.com/blog/2010/05/turbomarc-faster-xml-marc-records just curious, is it worth switching back to the plain old MARC format internally for Koha, for an extra speed increase? i cant remember what the advantage was in moving to marcxml? (other than marcxml being easier to read, for a human)
