| + | There was some discussion about the filterCache issue and why the current VuFind settings are so high (no one knows -- predates current development team). | ||
| + | |||
| + | Some initial tests have been done with lower numbers and no significant performance change has been seen -- but the test queries may be too simple. More tests will be done with more complex queries and larger numbers of filters. | ||
| + | |||
| + | If no obvious performance changes are found, we agreed to bring the numbers down in line with recommendations -- the current settings are extremely high. | ||

| + | Tod has been working on adding a call number package to SolrMarc for reuse in the AlphaBrowse handler (and possibly other places like call number sort). The work is based largely on Naomi Dushay' | ||
| + | |||
| + | The classes are being designed so that they can be extended for local variations of the standards. Once interfaces are finalized, some further refactoring may be possible to improve efficiencies. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Current challenge: figuring out how to reuse code that is part of SolrMarc; this is challenging because of the use of OneJar, the tool that makes SolrMarc a single-jar distribution. It is difficult for external code to access the jars stored within the OneJar file. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Possible ideas (if no OneJar workaround can be found): | ||
| + | |||
| + | - Distribute unpacked SolrMarc with VuFind; as long as scripts work the same, does anyone care? | ||
| + | |||
| + | - Use the import/lib directory somehow? | ||
