What tweaks did you have in mind? I put in code changes I could think of that would speed things up. They included:
1) Improved Firstname Lastname <-> Lastname, Firstname reversing logic.
2) Merge records code to allow duplicate records to be merged together when you get duplicates.
3) Prevent Author/Title overwrites during bulk metadata online fetch operations to allow mass updates of other metadata without screwing up a correct author/title.
4) Autosort/Automerge of incoming formats into existing records with fuzzy title matching to minimize duplicate record creation. Drag and drop blocks of books and they are sorted into the existing records or new records are created, as needed.
5)Autosort/Automerge applied during Copy to Library operations to allow the Autosort/Automerge to run on an existing library (not just during the initial Add) by copying all books to a newly created library.
If you can think of other improvements that will speed things up, they will always be considered.
