Hello,
I asked this question in StackOverflow concerning some performance problems I experienced when inserting nodes into a BaseX database: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51595210/basex-inserting-nodes-performan...
I already made some progress, especially when it comes to querying all data I need for the updates. I work a lot with the indexes now.
But I still have problems with inserting - and also deleting - nodes. It doesn't matter if I insert/delete nodes via a Java program or in the editor of the BaseX GUI: Both is quite slow. Inserting just one node in the GUI with an XQuery like this one takes up to 3 seconds:
insert node <related_record><title>Test title</title><author>Joe Lastname</author></related_record> into db:open-id('Database_Name', 7947561)
Deleting a node with the following command takes up to 7 seconds: delete node db:open-id('Database_Name', 88085737)
The problem is that in my case, I have to do about 150000 inserts and deletes, so it would take too much time.
Maybe my database is just too big to be performant? Or some settings are wrong? I'm very new to BaseX (and XML databases in general) so maybe there are just some errors I don't see. I also give you some information on my database that I copied from the info screen of the BaseX GUI:
