Hi,
I have a 60MB workbook that takes 8+ minutes to open on my quad core laptop. It opens only using a single core (20%cpu).
After the workbook opens the first few adjustments I make causes the Excel to hang and takes a few seconds (3-5) to respond. After I save the initial edits it's faster to respond and no longer hangs on future edits.
Excel saves using 26% cpu.
Calculations however are blazing fast, 100% cpu usage and on average less than 1/2 a second to calculate even if there are thousands of changes.
Ive already set calculations to manual and turned off recalculation on saves.
Is there anything that can be done to speed up opening the workbook and stopping the initial hang when editing besides throwing more resources at the problem. I am pondering switching to a desktop where I can buy a processor which has faster single threaded performance.
Thoughts?
Thanks
Andrew
