Well, as it is just a test there is only 6 items in it so I think it
should fit in 2 GB.

If I access the DB through phpMyAdmin and change say a character in a
title in the biblio table, it takes less than 1 second. So the MySQL
is fast from what I can tell. It actually says "Query took 0.0001
sec". So, looks to me as if it the perl scripts, but how to tell and
what to do?
