That's very weird - so my 34 second run will run faster if I stop Shared
Events - and it does, it has come down to 15 seconds.

 

Of course, we need both the slowdown fixed and the ability to deal with
Shared Events.

 

Regards

Hi, Cathy,

yes you were right!!! I think I was mentally blocked ... as I didn't
understand in time. 

I have excluded Shared Events (in German: "Mehrfach genutzte Ereignisse")
now and the gedcom run faster than ever - in 7 minutes finished.

Thank you so much ... especially for your patience.

Here is the reason that Gedcom Export is taking longer.

I gave the answer from memory a few days ago.
I've now looked up the Bug tracker and there are two issues logged.

Whether or not you have used Shared Events, if you don't exclude Shared
Events from your Gedcom Export, the Export is taking from 3 to 10 times
longer than when you do exclude Shared Events.

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

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

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&n bsp; 
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.

    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 indiv iduals 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 Tic ket - 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 comput er 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 think it's to do with Shared Events. Try excluding them
        under Customise button.
        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
       & nbsp;    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
        &n bsp;   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
       &n bsp;    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!
