    PRINT-REC expand_doc_bib_z30 CONF=expand_doc_bib_z30_vufind,TAG=852

    Note the warning
    ! Note that this program should be used with special care as
    ! it can create performance problems, due to the potential
    ! overflow of the buffers. This program should be avoided by
    ! libraries that have numerous item records linked to one
    ! bibliographic record (usually due to the individual listing
    ! of serial issues).

    The limit of 100000 bytes for the record in question are exceeded and results in a crash of service p-print-03.
