Title: "New address..." extremely slow... > 30 seconds
Post by: Alex Beckenham on April 26, 2011, 04:52:59 AM
Hi,

On one of my wallets (my desktop) when I click "New address..." the address appears almost instantly after I type a label.

However on the laptop wallet, it takes over 30 seconds, maybe a minute for the GUI to respond every time I add a new address.

What would be the likely reasons for this?

Cheers.

Duh sorry... more encryption, slower cpu, larger wallet.dat.

Still, I didn't think it would be that much slower.

My Bitcoin Client on Mac OS was very slow, too. Needed much time to start, to add a new address etc. After I had deleted the debug.log from library/application support/bitcoin it worked like a charm!

Thanks I'll try that.
