v17 performance issue
Locked
 
|
FYI I have been producing some large tables summarizing survey item results. Currently I make a couple tweaks to the table and cell formats in Pivot Tables before copying to Word.
Today I reran a job in v17 but discovered that in changing the cell format in a large table (~150+ cells) it became a terrible slug. SPSS appeared to lock up for several minutes while it executed the formatting change. Reformatting the very same table in v15 took only a second.

Dennis, thank you for reporting
this. We've been able to replicate the issue internally, and we are looking into
trying to get it resolved in the
17.0.2 Release, scheduled for March. David Nichols

This issue
will indeed be fixed in Release 17.0.2. To clarify what the issue is, it's when
you activate a pivot table, select Format>Cell Properties, select the Format
Value tab and make changes to cell formats. In some cases Release 17 is taking
much longer than prior releases to apply the new formatting.

I had this problem in V.16.0.2 as well. Trying to change cell formats in a pivot table or even select a range of them sometimes took 5 minutes or more before responding. This was a partial correlation table about 15 X 15.
Hope you find a resolution soon. Ian Martin Ian D. Martin, Ph.D. Tsuji Laboratory University of Waterloo Dept. of Environment & Resource Studies On 11 Feb, 2009, at 2:47 PM, SPSS Support wrote:
