I did not understand; I thought that the speed slowed down as the OP progressed from table to table in the file.Hi Charles First I would like to point out that to my understanding there are now two separate issues in discussion in this thread which are easy to mix up: 1) The same table calculates fast or slow depending on the position within the same entry, see OP.
True; I did not bother to mention other files in which I had multiple tables, some with references to other tables in the file. At times "M-x org-table-iterate-buffer-tables" seemed to take eternity, squared. (Imagine a smiley face placed here.)2) An entry with nothing but a single table, as you describe it:
It has been quite a while and I suspect that my experience may have been with org <8.0. I try to find the older files, give them a run and let you know. I will also give org another shot using multiple tables, as spreadsheets, in one file. The worst that can happen is that I will have to export the tables.On Thu, Oct 30, 2014 at 12:40 AM, Charles Millar <address@hidden> wrote:I learned that the hard way when I had one table - four columns, three simple addition formulas with about 1,000 entries. It seemed an eternity before the addition was completed.Only out of curiosity I would like to see the TBLFM. And do you see still the same slowness with 8.3beta?
