Searching for a string in sample fn-random.gnumeric spreadsheet, part of the Gnumeric 1.2 source distribution takes about 12 seconds. My machine is a PIII 600MHz, 128MB RAM. We set up an AMD 2GHz, 256MB RAM machine the same way and search times were similar. String searches on larger spread sheet (20000 rows) take around 40 seconds. Too slow to be of any use. This Gnumeric, and Gnome 2.4 were Slackware distribution binaries, not compiled by me. Is this normal speed? Are there any remedies?That sounds odd. Can you supply a test sheet and a detailed set of instructions on exactly _how_ you are doing the search ? bugzilla is the best place for this. We'll definitely have a look Thanks Jody
Hello, Thanks for your reply. The gzip'ed test sheet fn-random.gnumeric is attached below. Gnumeric loads pretty fast. loading fn-random.gnumeric (~ 700k) takes 37 seconds from time you click on file name in the the edit menu till the time the data shows on screen. To search I press F7, up pops a screen and I type in "Variance" into the search box. It takes 12 seconds to find "Variance" I don't know the bugzilla scheme for gnumeric but will take a look. Thanks again, Kirill --Kirill Sapelkin znanie rawbw com
