[Blacklight-development] more indexing progress

[Jonathan Rochkind]

Okay, thanks to Bob's help I succesfully indexed the 11 sample records. 
And they show up in blacklight and everything. (I _think_ Naomi's 
addition to the properties file was NOT needed with most recent svn ups 
for both importer and blacklight.)

When I try to index a sample package from Bess a long time ago, it 
errors out all over the place on "unable to parse record length" (but 
still lies and says it indexes 1k records. Anyway.)  But maybe that was 
a bad mrc file. When I try to index a more recent sample file Bess 
gave---geez, that sample file is way too big Bess, it causes my testy 
test server to crash. (The test server has a habit of crashing when you 
do too much I/O too rapidly. Oops.)

So, okay, I guess I'll go right to indexing my own sample mrc from my 
catalog...  When I try on my own sample of 10k records, it gets to 
record 2771, and then it just hangs forever.  Could be a problem with my 
server though. Hmm.
