Hi everyone, I can report that GnuCash runs really well on the Mac Mini with the M1 chip. My old laptop had an Intel 6300U CPU. The M1 in the Mac blitzes the old laptop. I haven't performed timings, but it feels like it's two to three times faster on my large database. _______________________________________________ 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.
