I think Thomas Fernandez uses ASK> filters with a LOT more conditions. I do, and I have exactly the same problem. Adding another condition to a filter that already has, say, 50 conditions, will take many minutes. Yes, literally minutes. (Don't kill TB!, just be patient. All will be fine at the end.) Ritlabs replied to me that I should change the way I use filters. It has something to do with Windows handles. Instead of adding a new condition, I should use "any of". Well, with over 100 filters (some have only a few conditions, others up to a hundred) it would take me days to change all. I think they should look at the way they use the Windows handles; after all, there was no such problem with the Old Filtering System (version 2.x, I think). The workaround is to create a new filter that does exactly the same, as mentioned. I'm crossposting to TBBETA, so it can also be discussed there. I'm not sure whether fixing this problem belongs in the wishlist or is a bug. -- Cheers, Thomas. "When they broke open molecules, they found they were only stuffed with atoms.
