Re: Import of Events is extremely slow - any plans to improve it?
Ime,
I was using the UI - have not looked at the API endpoint.
For now I will use sql scripts as I've done before - I'm just trying to
find out if anybody is working on improving what is (now) an import
function that in reality only caters for small data sets. There is no
question about the core developers ability to speed this up - I saw that
with the import of OU meta-data - but not sure if anybody has done anything.
If no answers from core developers, the I will write a JIRA issue for it.
Regards
Calle
