My memory is a bit fuzzy, but version 4 made some significant changes to (I think) a number of key-value structures in the database. The first time you open version 4, it has to convert all the old values (if you have done lots of transaction importing, that’s a big contributor). If you quit gnucash before it’s done with the conversion, it has to start over the next time. I think it took something like 45 minutes before my Mac was done updating everything internally in the database.
After that it has been fine. -- Dave Reiser dbrei...@icloud.com > On Feb 5, 2021, at 11:01 AM, R.
