[Dspace-tech] Speed problem in postgres during batch ingesting

2009-01-27 Thread Hlias Stavrakis
Hi, I am using the dspace import tool for batch ingesting in a Postgres database and I am facing extremely slow feedback in each record commitment. Initially, the speed was normal but when the items tend to be around 30 thousand, the speed of each commitment is unacceptable. Is there any known

Hello, We tackled the same problem in version 1.4.2. Therefore we added extra DC qualifiers (bibliographicCitation.issue / volume / ...) which we also uses for a better structured input format (see http://193.190.8.15/odin/ - you can test this out with user name and login dspace). For every

Given that the test in the paper uses neither postgres nor the DSpace import tool, that seems unlikely. 30,000 items shouldn't pose a big problem for any mature DBMS (e.g. Postgres / MySQL etc). If there are problems at that scale, they are more likely to be in other parts of the system. We've

Hi Stan, You can put the dspace.log and checker.log files wherever you want them. We have ours in /export/home/dspace/log/Just make sure they are fully qualified and don't use the ${log.dir} symbolic in the log4j files. I did leave the symbolics in our dspace.cfg files as follows:

Hi, Sue. You need to run maven to rebuild the installation before running ant -- just do mvn package in your {dspace-source}/dspace directory, then do your ant build as usual. Your jsp customizations will end up in {dspace}/webapps/jspui/. At least, that's what we've been doing; and it seem to

Susan, I'm a little surprised you had to do that. Its actually the Ant script that should have expanded that ${log.dir} in your build process. I suspect something went wrong with your install at that stage, maybe file permissions errors or timestamps on the log4j.properties that was
