I have updated VEDA version last week to FE 4.5.8 (from 4.5.5 maybe; not sure I remember) however the Sync of the full TIAM is now extremely slow.
In the version before a full model Sync would take an hour; with the new VEDA_FE it is now more than a day.
Note that the Sync is working (not stalled or stopped) but all files are now very slow to be Sync.
Is there something that I should have done when updating the VEDA version?
The machine: PC + windows 7 + office 2013.
Attached pic showing Sync started 24 hours ago with some specific scenario very slow to update in the model.
I have only one experience of such extremely poor performance from years ago, and it was due to the use of multi-field compound indexes having been dropped. After complaining about the extremely bad performance, an option was added into VEDA-FE for using / not using compound indexes (see Tools → UserOptions → General). Since then I always used this option, although it seems there have been some changes in the use of these indexes since then. Olivier: Are you using that option?
I hope the new version is still making ever more effective use of compound indexes where needed for performance...

No I have not yet tested v4.5.8. In fact, I only now started to test how much time a full Sync takes in 4.5.538 (my latest version). I am not fully sure, but it does seem to take notably longer than in earlier versions...
I am also not sure how to download all the new versions. There is a link on the Support site, asking for an email address to get a download link. Is that the only option to download each time? BTW: is v4.5.8 the only version available for download at this time, or are there some older versions available somewhere, too?
I'm not sure of this but I would like to share this information with the community.
I have also removed some Optional Add-Ins from within Excel (eg: @RISK uncertainties analysis and optimization software)- I think this may have helped as well - however these options were already active with the previous version of VEDA_FE.
