James-
I am not an expert, but I would bet that writing a python script using
withlist to manipulate the objects within the list would have a better
performance footprint than using config_list.
Just a guess and I am sure that it require more programming than a
config_list solution.
Good Luck

Hi all,
We just deployed the Mailman for campus E-mail lists service
recently and
are having some difficulties updating the 14000 lists on weekly
basis. The
lists data are extracted from Oracle Database and then spooled
into two
files for each list, one file is for list members and the other
is for the
configuration of list. We call config_list.py to inject these
two files
into Mailman database, Due to the performance of config_list.py,
each inject
takes up to 5~10 seconds to complete a average list while
longer for large
list. Apparently the bottleneck resides in the process when
config_list
update the database in Mailman.
Can someone in this list please advise is there different ways
to
speed/tune up the update process?
