Description:
We are trying to run a p_print_11 service against a file to check URLs. The service seems to running extremely slow for unknown reasons. Doing a tail -f of the file (sys01_p_print_11.06870), shows the service is getting stuck on generating the entire URL.

For example, the line will read
Checking: http://www.loc.gov/catdir/
for several minues, sometimes in excess of 10 minutes and then will finally complete the URL to read
Checking: http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0703/90052897-d.html

We've tried restarting this service a couple times but have the same results, we also tried using a smaller file but that didn't help either. This service was run successfully a couple times last week on larger files and only required a couple hours.

Resolution:
We haven't needed to run this job again lately but the last run we did completely in an acceptable amount of time. If we find that this job runs slowly in the future we will make note of it and submit another SI
