The startup may be slowing (about 3-4 seconds; doing a save is similar), but entering transactions is speedy. This is an an iMac, using the Intel version of GnuCash and accessing the GnuCash file on my NAS over SMB. My windows machine is a little slower - say 5-6 seconds for load/save. It is speedy on Linux, as it is an NFS mount. I'd say it is scaling extremely well. -- _________________________________ Richard Losey rlo...@gmail.com Micah 6:8 _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
