[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Components not displaying in one of our repositories

Hi Lisa,

We are experiencing this problem at the University of Maryland as well. One
of our developers, Chris, is working on it (see message above from Mark).
He is making progress but it is not resolved yet. In my limited
understanding of the issue it has to do with running out of heap space
regularly which causes the indexer to loop and then crash. It also looks
like Chris may have recently discovered a problem with jruby that is
related to this issue.

We'll report back when we have more information.

Joanne
