I am trying to copy points with their attributes from one layer to another 
(actually one geopackage file to another), the select is quick, couple of mins, 
bearing in mind there are 800,000 points but when pasting into the new empty 
geopackage file it is extremely slow. Less than 10% of the points need to be 
pasted but it was taking 40mins before I stopped it and I had no idea how much 
longer it would take. There was a hint that it may have done about 30,000 in 
40mins.
Is there another way to do this, I have also tried switching the selection and 
deleting the other 90% but this too is very slow and don’t see the end.
