Ernie, that's a nice idea buying a faster computer! But that's not the point.

I wonder why there is the significant difference between version 7.5 and 8 in creating a gedcom.

Cheers, Eva

But
If you really want to kick your computer into warp drive, buy a solid state hard drive (SSD) it has 39 channels that run your data on. It took me 4 hours to run a relationship on a 800,000 name file on a standard hard drive and with the SSD it took only four minutes. I am using a quad four with 8 gig of ram and a SSD. You can figure out the math yourself.
Cheers,
Ernie

    I don’t think that Shared Events should cause an issue.
    Potentially, a minimal impact making the _SHAR records against not
    having to produce the multiple copies for the other individuals.

    Looking at a test export I can see that the event, in my case
    census events, is exported from the MASTER copy with a _SHAR
    record to link it to the other individuals it is shared with, and
    that it is NOT exported in their details (which also suggests that
    shared events should be exported if the target does not support
    shared events or with an option to include or exclude them).

    It would be worth running a backup, and then check and compress on
    the database. There is always the possibility that the internal
    tables in the database have extended and the compress would make
    it faster for access. Having V7.5 present is not an issue, though
    once you have moved to V8 you will have no need for it (but just
    ensure that there are none of your files there before you remove it).

    Otherwise, I would suggest raising it as an issue with Legacy –
    Tools / Support Ticket – especially if the same issues occur on a
    different PC.

    Thanks, Chris and Cathy.

     I did exactly everything in 8.0.0.595 as I did in 7.5. before. I
    had exactly the same data - nothing else. I exported gedcom 5.5.1
    in UTF-8 as I have to upload to a TNG-Website monthly. And I
    exported from the same computer as I always do. My system is
    i5-4210M  8 GB (as I don't use games at all).

    I don't know which Shared Events I could exclude (my english is
    not perfect enough to understand).

    Could it be that I have those time problems as I still have 7.5 on
    my computer? But I can't imagine.

    At the moment I try to export - all the same - on a different new
    Windows 10 computer. I'll see what happens. But I noticed already
    it started as slow as the other one. I have Legacy 8.0.0.595
    installed there as well (not network).

    Any more ideas??

    Thanks in advance

        I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong - I'm
        remembering conversations around the time Legacy 8 was
        released. I hardly use Shared Events and rarely make a gedcom
        that includes Events.

            Hi

            I have just run an export, Legacy format, for my system -
            10119 people, 3159
            families and minimal sources - in 34 seconds. That would
            suggest a 9 minute
            run time for 150000 people and families. My system is an
            i7-6700 with 32GB
            of RAM since it is a gaming system.

            So, your time of 20 minutes from 7.5 seems reasonable.
            When comparing that
            to the current, 8.0.0.595 not 8.5 version, there must be
            something else that
            has changed. Were you comparing the same data or have you
            added a lot more
            informatio n to the individuals and a lot of sources
            referred all over the
            place. Even so, that might only double the run time.

            Otherwise, I would be considering if the target for the
            export was not on
            the PC hard drive but on to a USB or network device. The
            next option would
            be whether there is a performance problem at the PC level
            or some running
            software which is using the processor.

            Hope this helps, but we really need to know why about what
            is happening.

            Regards

            Chris

            Subject: [LegacyUG] creating a gedcom file in 8.5.. very slow

            Who can help?

            When I created a gedcom file in 7.5 of 150.000 persons it
            took 20 minutes.
            Now I updated to the newest 8.5.. and now it takes more
            than 4 hours to d o
            the same!

            Does anybody know what happened? Or could I've done
            something wrong in
            updating???

            Thanks for any help!
