[Archivesspace_Users_Group] EAD Importer crashed?

[Maura Carbone]

We had this problem, and yes the importer did just freeze. It seemed
to happen with very large files; you can try getting a beefier
processor and more ram, or you can split the collection up and use the
merge function (need 1.1.2+ for ASpace).
