John, Thanks for helping out on this.
It's definitely the Number of Events and also having the SHARED EVENTS included that is slowing it down. If I create a gedcom and exclude both events and media, it completes in 7 1/2 mins. If I exclude only events, it completes in 9 mins. If I include events and exclude media It takes over an hour If I exclude SHARED Events it completes in 8 Mins Funny thing is, I haven't yet created any shared events.
