[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Running authority_control_fields.pl

[Kyle Tomita]

Thanks.  Seems like the general consensus is that it takes a long time and should be run overnight.

I can verify that it took a very very long time for us too.  I used Jason Stephenson's "disbatcher.pl" script (description here: http://blog.mvlcstaff.org/2012/09/howto-batch-authority-control.html), which allowed me to run them in batches overnight.

Hope that's helpful!
