Performance Characteristics

As mentioned above, MenuCat can create big files. The following measurements were made on the author's personal software library, the first 30 disks of the Fred Fish public domain library, and the first 8 disks of the AMICUS library. The first column identifies the library in question; the second identifies the size of the output file; and the third identifies typical times required to perform the task of cataloging the library in question. Users of this software are encouraged to submit similar performance data on their personal libraries.
