The XML backend doesn’t save just the transaction, it saves the whole book. Every time. The SQL backend saves each transaction (or more correctly, commits each transaction to the database) when it’s committed in GnuCash. That said, I tested save time yesterday on Windows with a 53MB (uncompressed) book. Saves took about 50 seconds. There’s an open bug on the topic, https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=795804 <https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=795804>. Users have reported that they’ve observed a significant speedup by shrinking the window and in once case by turning off display scaling.
