Agreed, it does seem odd, one other thought relates to am intense period of data entry associated with stocks. At the time this feature was under development needing quite a lot of 'scrubbing' of lots, I ended up with masses of entries which later became obsolete.
I am always reluctant to delete accounts in case there is a knock-on effect somewhere else. Computer spec is nothing fantastic, 32G RAM, Windows 10 Pro 64bit with Samsung SSD, there's no paging to disk and given we are only talking about a 15mb file would be surprised if that happened. A few years ago when starting out with GNC I ran both versions on Linux/Windows, Linux was a lot smoother and quicker to load - that was in the early days so no idea how it would perform now. Cheers, "Robert Kesterson"> How is your system memory? GnuCash loads all the data in memory (even if you use the SQL backend) so it needs some room to breathe. I have easily ten years of data in my file (and I categorize and track everything at a level that few people would, so I have *lots* of splits), and I don’t experience the slowness or scrolling issues that you mention. But then I have 32 GB of memory. The problems you describe sound like what I would expect of memory was low and the system was using swap space a lot. -- Sent from: http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/GnuCash-User-f1415819.html _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list [email protected] To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
