How to find reuse metrics relatively quickly?

Kendall Shaw

I am trying to get counts of conrefs, variables, images and topics included a baseline to present some metrics about the amount of reuse (some factors are ignored). My approach is to parse the fields:

FISHVARINUSE
FISHLINKS
FISHFRAGMENTLINKS
FISHIMAGELINKS

For each baseline, I get the logical id and version of each map or topic. The DocumentObj.RetrieveLanguageMetadata endpoint only allows you to specify 1 version. So, I make multiple calls per baseline for each version included in the baseline. This is very slow since I have to do this for thousands of baselines.

Do you know of a faster way to gather this information?

    By the way, the reuse report I was asked to work on includes more info than the proposal in the link.

    1. How many topics/maps/images are used more than once, across publications and how many reuses there are.
    2. How many varrefs/conrefs/keyrefs are used and how many reuses.

    If the idea is to report on how much labor is saved by reuse, I would think metrics about how much content is reused, would be good to include too. Word count, for example, for content included by a conref.
