Under [Configuration] in writelog.ini, add these lines if they are not
there already:
AutoSaveCount=200
QsoWarningCount=201
If the warning number is lower than the save number, you will get a
warning a save is about to occur. If it's higher, you never get a
warning, it just happens...

Also check to see how often you have autosave saving the log. People who are
from the CT era (that's me too) tend to set it to 1 (one) which saves the
whole log every time you make a Q. There is absolutely no need for this and
with a 10,000 Q log it really bogs things down. Mine is set to 200 and I
should probably set it higher...

That slows things down for me when it starts up on its own..

Subject: [WriteLog] SCP slowdown
Hi Ron and Tom,
I'm running approx the same setup as Tom, although the OS is WIN 7.
I've done testing with 14K QSO logs, SCP, 6K callsign prefill files
and SO2R and had no bog-down, that includes while the PC was running
NA3P at its highest resolution (spectrum analyzer - a big CPU user).
Bog-downs seem to happen either from low memory as Tom suggests, or
things running in the background - which can hog CPU and/or memory. I
have all the auto-update stuff on the PC turned OFF.
The logging computer here only logs and supports the rigs. It never
goes on the internet or does other functions. I transfer update files
to it over a local network. Never, ever, running a browser on a PC
can do wonders for performance...

Hi Ron
I am running a Lenovo X200, 2.4 GHz, 3GB, laptop running XP. I had a
comparable number of QSO's and did not notice any material slowdown.
The CPU was also acting as a DVK and running custom wattmeter and
station control software using 8 com ports.
If it is the machine, I suspect it will be more about the memory than
the CPU speed.
FWIW, I do see Writelog slow down occasionally. Usually if you stop
and restart Writelog a bunch of times, it seems to slow down. This is
especially true after it crashes. A CPU restart generally restores it
to
normal. Also, if it is having network trouble, the performance will lag.

Subject: [WriteLog] Super Check Partial Slowing Down for big Logs
At our recent PZ5W operation we noticed the Super check partial
window slowing down as the log got larger and larger. It was quite
noticeable at
8,000 QSOs, and almost unusable at 10,000 QSOs. When we logged more
than
10,000 QSOs, the report had already been transmitted before the window
populated. Nothing else slowed down, just the Super check partial
window.
Is there any way to speed up the super check partial function? We were
using a Lenovo Laptop with a quad core i5-4210U 1.70 GHz CPU. Should
have
been enough horsepower. Is there any way to dedicate one of the
processors
to the super check partial function?
