I'm struggling to weigh the cost of getObject() vs. the cost of adding
more metadata to the catalog. I'll explain my situation.
I have 10,000 widgets cataloged. I do a path and date query that
returns me maybe 12 of these. Then I have a choice of calling
getObject().getData() on each of these, or I could add getData to the
catalog metadata.
Does the cost of calling getObject() for a dozen objects justify
creating a new metadata field?
More generally how does a large amount of metadata in the catalog affect
performance of queries?
The wisdom of those more knowledgeable than me would be appreciated.
Mark
