When we imported our library it tooks about 6 hours, we have nearly 47000 biblio and 60000 items. We tested doing imports in parallel with miked results. On the other hand we had to improve/fix some perl modules, concurrency was not very well handled. Andres Cindy Murdock wrote:
Hi Paul,
Other note : the bulkmarcimport should (may ?) work in HEAD too, so you can try bulkimporting record after setting up an empty version.
If you do, pls report success & speed here please. With Koha 2.2, bulkmarcimport imported 8-10 biblios per sec. With zebra, I expect this being highly faster. Something like 10x or 20x.
I think we'll try out the bulkmarcimport on HEAD. On 2.2.4, it took almost 11 hours for us to import 97,594 records. In that time I could eat pizza, watch a movie, and get a good night's sleep! I'll let you know how it works out.
