Large RIS import
Hello all,
I am importing around 20,000 records from RIS into a new Zotero library. It seems that the import stops randomly, sometimes after a few 100, sometimes after a few 1000 records.
It doesn't seem to be to do with specific records - For example, if I remove the start of the RIS, up to a point BEFORE the last imported record, I can restart the import and it runs across the previous 'break point'.
Enabling debugging really slows down the import process, so it's hard to see what's going on. (e.g. Zotero crashes when trying to view to view the log, or is very very slow when I leave the log open).
The "Import ... Importing" window has three buttons at the bottom (cancel, go back, continue) that are greyed out. The progress bar doesn't seem to work.
Any thoughts?

(Remove the {{ and }} - that's jsut for forum formatting...)
The progress bar does appear, but only goes half-way, then the import gets stuck.
