Just a quick question regarding the Export function in the web interface... Does this export EAD and DC on the fly or does it get this from the cached DC and EAD folders?
Thanks,
Vicky

- When the export XML buttons in the right-hand context menu of an archival description's view page are clicked

Sorry it's the export XML buttons in the right-hand context menu I was referring to. I was hoping that this uses the cache and does not generate on the fly. But I'm guessing if an item isn't in the cache then will it generate it on the fly? I've just clicked on the Export EAD button for a fairly average sized archive and it seems to be putting mysql under a bit of pressure which makes me think that possibly the EAD and DC xml for this isn't in the cache.
Thanks for your help.

I've done some further testing on this and from what I've noticed the Export links do not use the cached xml when the auto caching is switched on or off. Here's what I noticed.....
If the automatic caching is not switched on then the OAI still uses the cached xml as change to record does not appear. Whereas if you use the Export function via the web interface the change in the record appears, therefore this generates the xml on the fly. Switching the auto caching on and editing a record you can see a task appear for updating the cached DC and EAD xml files in the Task manager page. However when clicking on the EAD Export function I was expecting this to display fairly quickly if it was now using the cached version, but it’s taking an age to respond which makes me think that it's using the cached version and is trying to generate the xml on the fly, although not using the job scheduler. Watching the log while clicking on the Export EAD button seems to confirm this as CPU hits 99.3%. Just to note that with the auto caching enabled just adding a full stop to the title of Papurau Kate Roberts archive has resulted in that archive (which isn’t one of the largest archives) taking around 1hr 7mins to re-cache the DC and EAD xml files via the job scheduler, which highlights why we can’t have this switched on. Just to note it caches EAD first then the DC.
