Description:
When we ran p-file-20 in v17 it took about 90 min. to run.

On 8/11 (pm) we ran p-file-20 for the first time in v19 production and it took about 2 1/2 hours to run. Last night it took 4 hours to run. The job ran successfully both nights and I looked at the logs and everything looks fine. I checked a few patron records and they look fine too.

Is it supposed to run longer in v19?

Resolution:
[From Ex Libris:]
p_file_20 starts around 10:05 pm each night. Looking at the logs in $alephe_scratch (" ls -lrt *p_file_20* "), I see this:

-rw-r--r-- 1 aleph aleph 9908 Aug 12 00:17 abc50_p_file_20.00234
-rw-r--r-- 1 aleph aleph 8889 Aug 13 02:04 abc50_p_file_20.00265
-rw-r--r-- 1 aleph aleph 8858 Aug 14 00:43 abc50_p_file_20.00290
-rw-r--r-- 1 aleph aleph 8858 Aug 15 01:35 abc50_p_file_20.00314
-rw-r--r-- 1 aleph aleph 8951 Aug 16 00:55 abc50_p_file_20.00338

It seems that the number of records being processed each night is similar, so I can't account for these differences. Other jobs competing with it on the system could be a factor, but I don't see any such jobs (-- at least not in $alephe_scratch).

[From site:]
Not sure why it was taking such a long time for p-file-20 to run last week but it has been running normally the past 3 nights.
