SwKBT - Catalogs import/export performance

Manual load of the IBM catalogs takes hours to complete. Would like to see this streamlined to shorten the durations. Perhaps smaller catalogs by application types.

    I believe that this RFE is in the wrong queue. I think that this RFE is for "IBM Tivoli Software Knowledge Base Toolkit" and not "IBM Tivoli Output Manager for z/OS".
