Disproportionate effort relates to the amount of work required in
_providing_ the information, not in locating it. Many organisations like
to think it's the latter, but I've had the IC's office confirm several

As I understand it it's mentioned in the act to cover things like fancy
medical information that requires multi-million pound equipment to view.
