Hi Scott:
How so?
I have useful information concerning how OFBiz works and I want to share
that with all interested parties. Are you now the OFBiz information censor?
Regards,
Ruth

Hi Ruth,
This is bordering on spam and starting to get annoying, would you mind trying
to contribute to the discussion before starting in with the advertising?
Thanks

BJ,
I also am new to ofbiz and am trying to learn how to use it. I couldn't help
noticing this discussion because I wanted to do the same thing - set up a
hierarchy of categories for products. I was just going through the business
setup guide located at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBENDUSER/Apache+OFBiz+Business+Setup+Guide
and towards the end it discusses how to set up categories. I have a couple of
questions:
-Can a category be used in more than one Catalog?
-Can a category have more than one parent? It looks like the answer is "no"
but just making sure.
thanks,
Paul

are you sure you are not referring to 1 million products.
I run in the real world over 100,000 products.
I have approx 18 top categories with 3-10 levels of sub categories.
if your see 1,000,000 categories that way then it is feasible.
I use automated updating from my suppliers to keep thing up-to-date.
these updates happen every 24 for prices new and obsolete products.
availability is as often as 15 min.
The average Cpu usage during these operations is about 15% of a 1.6ghz
Cpu with enough RAM to not use the swap file. the peak cpu usage is
about 75% when the scheduled services and large imports (1 gig data) are
happening.

Hello,
Thank you for your quick response. Regarding your question about real world
applications:
Ecommerce:
http://www.rockauto.com/
http://allegro.pl/
There are applications that holds > 1 000 000 categories.
In a PLM industry it's also very common to have a couple of milions of
objects (consider the complexity of a train or a plain for example).
The point of my post was not a fix, but the implementation of the find root
category method.
I think that you should avoid such a code. You have got great database layer
(great possibility to improve performance) so it would be great to utilize
it as much as it's possible.
I really like Ofbiz application thats why I try to give you my input.
Once again thank you for the response and for the link you send me. I will
come back with the better solution after studing the datamodel.
Regards,
Micha³ Cukierman
