That is true, Deborah. In general, in-line XML datasteams will affect performance if they make the object's FoXML file grow past ~30k. In the next release you will be able to store the system datastreams like DC and Rels-Ext as managed content so that won't be a problem anymore.
It is true that the DC datastream was designed to be the minimal data that a repository manager needed to run her repository, and the Basic Search that uses it was intended for that purpose, not to be exposed to end users. ____________________________________ Thornton Staples Director of Community Strategy and Alliances Director of the Fedora Project DuraSpace, Inc.
