Hi I have just run an export, Legacy format, for my system - 10119 people, 3159 families and minimal sources - in 34 seconds. That would suggest a 9 minute run time for 150000 people and families. My system is an i7-6700 with 32GB of RAM since it is a gaming system.
So, your time of 20 minutes from 7.5 seems reasonable. When comparing that to the current, 8.0.0.595 not 8.5 version, there must be something else that has changed. Were you comparing the same data or have you added a lot more information to the individuals and a lot of sources referred all over the place. Even so, that might only double the run time. Otherwise, I would be considering if the target for the export was not on the PC hard drive but on to a USB or network device. The next option would be whether there is a performance problem at the PC level or some running software which is using the processor. Hope this helps, but we really need to know why about what is happening.

When I created a gedcom file in 7.5 of 150.000 persons it took 20 minutes. Now I updated to the newest 8.5.. and now it takes more than 4 hours to do the same! Does anybody know what happened? Or could I've done something wrong in updating??? Thanks for any help!
