I am working on a file for a client. It's a bit over 70 Mb. On my computer, I am running Windows 11 and Office 365, AMD Ryzen 7 3700U 4 cores, 8 logical processors, 12 Gb RAM. When I work on the file and make selections, it calculates automatically with no problems. When the client does, it goes into the Calculating 8 Threads process and it takes forever. What causes this? I know I can change it to Manual and only run the calculations when all data is entered, but I'm trying to understand what causes the severe differences on two different computers. Is is strictly the performance of the computer, or is there something else I'm not considering?

Thanks in advance for your response.

I'm experiencing the same issue, were you able to find a cause and/or solution?
