Have you been following the “Optimizing Script Performance” series on the ACL Blog? aclkevin has been offering some great tips.
In case you missed them:
Part Two – Computed fields and the EXTRACT FIELDS command
Part Four – To PRESORT or not to PRESORT
Here’s a list of all of them, as of the date I wrote this post. I made some changes in the lastest scripts I’m writing based on these tips.
Thanks, Kevin!
