<li>I was able to find an exact duplicate for an IITA item by searching for its title (I already knew that these existed)</li>
<li>I started working on a basic Python script to do this and managed to find an actual duplicate in the recent IWMI items
<ul>
<li>I think I will check for similar titles, and if I find them I will print out the handles for verification</li>
<li>I could also proceed to check other metadata like type because those shouldn&rsquo;t vary too much</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>I ran my new <code>check-duplicates.py</code> script on the 292 non-IWMI publications from Udana and found twelve potential duplicates
<ul>
<li>Upon checking them manually, I found that 7/12 were indeed already present on CGSpace!</li>
<li>This is with the similarity threshold at 0.5. I wonder if tweaking that higher will make the script run faster and eliminate some false positives</li>
<li>I re-ran it with higher thresholds this eliminated all false positives, but it still took 24 minutes to run for 292 items!

<li>I noticed each CSV only had 10 or 20 corrections, mostly that none of the duplicate metadata values were removed in the CSVs&hellip;

<li>I cut a subset of the fields from the main CSV and tried again, but DSpace said &ldquo;no changes detected&rdquo;</li>
<li>The duplicates are definitely removed from the CSV, but DSpace doesn&rsquo;t detect them</li>
<li>I realized this is an issue I&rsquo;ve had before, but forgot because I usually use csv-metadata-quality for new items, not ones already inside DSpace!</li>
<li>I found a comment on thread on the dspace-tech mailing list from helix84 in 2015 (&ldquo;No changes were detected&rdquo; when importing metadata via XMLUI&quot;) where he says:</li>
</ul>
</li>

<blockquote>
<p>It&rsquo;s very likely that multiple values in a single field are being compared as an unordered set rather than an ordered list.
Try doing it in two imports. In first import, remove all authors. In second import, add them in the new order.</p>

<ul>
<li>The only thing I did on 2021-10-07 was import a few thousand metadata corrections&hellip;</li>
<li>I restarted PostgreSQL (instead of restarting Tomcat), so let&rsquo;s see if that helps</li>
<li>I filed <a href="https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/issues/7989">a bug for the DSpace 6/7 duplicate values metadata import issue</a></li>
<li>I tested the two patches for removing abandoned submissions from the workflow but unfortunately it seems that they are for the configurable aka XML workflow, and we are using the basic workflow</li>
<li>I discussed PostgreSQL issues with some people on the DSpace Slack
<ul>
<li>Looking at postgresqltuner.pl and <a href="https://pgtune.leopard.in.ua">https://pgtune.leopard.in.ua</a> I realized that there were some settings that I hadn&rsquo;t changed in a few years that I probably need to re-evaluate</li>
<li>For example, <code>random_page_cost</code> is recommended to be 1.1 in the PostgreSQL 10 docs (default is 4.0, but we use 1 since 2017 when it came up in Hacker News)</li>
<li>Also, <code>effective_io_concurrency</code> is recommended to be &ldquo;hundreds&rdquo; if you are using an SSD (default is 1)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>I also enabled the <code>pg_stat_statements</code> extension to try to understand what queries are being run the most often, and how long they take</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="2021-10-12">2021-10-12</h2>
<ul>
<li>I looked again at the duplicate items query I was doing with trigrams recently and found a few new things
<ul>
<li>Looking at the <code>EXPLAIN ANALYZE</code> plan for the query I noticed it wasn&rsquo;t using any indexes</li>
<li>I <a href="https://dba.stackexchange.com/questions/103821/best-index-for-similarity-function/103823">read on StackExchange</a> that, if we want to make use of indexes, we need to use the similarity operator (<code>%</code>), not the function <code>similarity()</code> because &ldquo;index support is bound to operators in Postgres, not to functions&rdquo;</li>
<li>A note about the query plan output is that we need to read it from the bottom up!</li>
<li>So with the similary operator we need to set the threshold like this now:</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<pre tabindex="0"><code class="language-console" data-lang="console">localhost/dspace= &gt; SET pg_trgm.similarity_threshold = 0.5;
</code></pre><ul>
<li>Next I experimented with using GIN or GiST indexes on <code>metadatavalue</code>, but they were slower than the existing DSpace indexes
<ul>
<li>I tested a few variations of the query I had been using and found it&rsquo;s <em>much</em> faster if I use the similarity operator and keep the condition that object IDs are in the item table&hellip;</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<pre tabindex="0"><code class="language-console" data-lang="console">localhost/dspace= &gt; SELECT text_value, dspace_object_id FROM metadatavalue WHERE dspace_object_id IN (SELECT uuid FROM item) AND metadata_field_id=64 AND text_value % 'Traditional knowledge affects soil management ability of smallholder farmers in marginal areas';

</code></pre><ul>
<li>Now this script runs in four minutes (versus twenty-four!) and it still finds the same seven duplicates! Amazing!</li>
<li>I still don&rsquo;t understand the differences in the query plan well enough, but I see it is using the DSpace default indexes and the results are accurate</li>
<li>So to summarize, the best to the worst query, all returning the same result:</li>
