Slow XML import

Former Member
Former Member
Hia,

We have a conversion mechnism running that's converting legacy postscript output to generic PDF with formatted XML (1 pdf = 1 pdf, same naming).
On a daily base about 5000 files are generated and imported with an external file source job using the XML and xpaths for meta data.
It's all working nicely, however, the import into M-Files is so slo...o..w.....

Any experience here to speed up this process, to increase the # of files per import (for example 500 in stead of 100) etc?
The (virtual) hardware shouldn't be the issue, nor the SQL vault database.

We have a backlog of let's say a few million files, so any speed increase would be great.


PS: best wishes all!

  • Importing 100 documents lies between 100 to 150 seconds, so basically 1/1,5 second a file, or about 100.000 per day when running full time.


    That sounds about normal, we usually estimate importing speed to be ~1 document/second if we don't have details about the environment. The actual speed depends on a lot of variables such as the hardware specs, the network, the complexity of the metadata structure and any event handlers and other scripts that need to run when the document is added to the vault etc.
