I work with large spreadsheets and have used both Excel and Calc in the
past. I have a large file with 10 or so sheets, many of which are large
and one has just over 35,000 records. In this sheet there is a field
that is boolean (0 or -1). When I filter on this field in Excel it
takes several minutes to complete. When filtering in Calc it takes
10-15 minutes or more. I'm using Excel on an older and slower i5
windows 7 machine and Libreoffice on a newer i5 (8th gen) with windows
10. I may try to switch machines to see what happens, but I'm pretty
busy and taking the time to do that is tricky. Also, I've tried using
Excel 360 (trial) on the newer windows 10 machine and it loads 30
seconds or so faster than the older machine running excel, much faster
than Libreoffice.
What might cause this slow filtering? I'd love to use Calc exclusively,
but occasional problems like this keep scaring me away from fully
embracing Libreoffice.
Thanks for any insights or ideas about how to speed it up.
