... And I have none of these problems with 13 years of history. No lags,
loading, while slow, has neither decreased nor increased over the years
with a growing file size. YMMV, but I've used both Mac versions, and now
the Windows version (currently 3.5).
I've said it before, but it bears repeating. When I imported many years
ago, I exported everything from Quicken into GnuCash in one grand pass.
GnuCash set up the accounts based on the transactions and picked up the
matching sides of transfers such as the OP mentioned.

I would suggest that it would probably create a very ponderous data file to
cover 15 years' data. I have 10 years' history in my current file and I
regret putting so much into one file, as it generates lags of several
seconds for some very common operations, and minutes to open or close..
I would suggest at most one or two years of history for your GnuCash file.
Then the one-account-at-a-time procedure is not so overwhelming.
I think, but I am not sure, that Quicken will continue to work off-line if
you want to review older history in the future.

Hi,
I'm trying to switch to GnuCash from Quicken 2016 and I'm running into a
problem where all transfers between accounts are duplicated after the QUF
import. I am aware that this is not a new problem and I have read meany
threads on here going back at least ten years about this.
I tried exporting just one month of my chequing and savings accounts to
separate QIF files and then importing them into GnuCash simultaneously and
separately. In each case, 100% of the time all transfers between the
accounts are duplicated in each account. Whatever is supposed to be
flagging these duplicates is not working. If I do them separately, I do
get the option to select the duplicates, but ultimately I want to import
the past 15 years of transaction level detail, and I am not willing to go
the manual route.
My question is: Is there any new information about a solution to this
problem?
Thanks,
Colin
