I'll assume that your data file is not compressed.
My data file is compressed and just over 5Mb on disk. On startup, Gnucash uses
about 125Mb of memory. I haven't time startup or saving; startup is noticeable,
but not pr

Hello,
In the course of catching up with my accounting, I've been working extensively
with mutual fund holdings, and their buys and sells. I have found a disturbing
bug in the way that the lots feature handles existing gains.
Specifically, the software recalculates ALL gains in a lot the mome

FWIW, I also keep mine under version control with git. I make sure the data

It could be very helpful to learn if this started in a recent release, or

Nothing shows up in accounts.
According to https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/File:OFX_Create_user_6.png there

My recollection is that Lots have always worked this way, even as far
back as GnuCash Version 2.
My opinion is that this not a bug, it is just how Lots work. The price
you pay for using Lots is that Lots rule the capital gains/losses
calculations and will trump (and, as you have found, even t

While I understand and agree with much of the reasoning in what you're saying,

First is that sometimes its calculations don't match what the brokerage lists.
