Hi, We have a problem in our data: we have been inconsistent in one of our fields, and we have named it in different ways. Besides, in some places we have used int, in other places string. I have created an update handler to correct this situation, and I am running it for our 100 thousand documents database, by doing PUT requests, as explained http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Document_Update_Handlers
What I am doing is: 1. get affected documents with a view 2. call the update handler. And this is running over an ssh tunnel. My problem is that this is veeeery slow. Currently I am running at 4 docs/s. Is this normal? I could do this locally (no ssh tunnel), but I guess things would not improve much, since the data being transferred is not that big (no include_docs, and the view emits very litte information). I have the impression that the bottleneck is couchdb itself: the update handler is just that slow. Am I right about this? Is there a way to speed this up? Thanks, Daniel
