Finally got a chance to sit down with my IT guru and look at this. He says we've got sufficient memory for the processing. There's something happening with the zebra indexing. After installing the latest update and rebuilding the zebra, everything looked and worked as it should. Then I went in and changed one character in one record and then the saved record showed no items in the short list, and when I searched for the barcode associated with that record's item the search failed. The item information is there if you go to the record. Unmodified records were still ok (as of midnight last night British Summer Time).<div>
He' has updated the bug [6435] with more technical information.</div><div><br></div><div>This problem has caused a slight snag in our cataloguing routine, I'm just glad we don't yet use Koha for circualtion!</div>
