Is this a problem after upgrading to a recent version? I used a two year
old version on a XP laptop during the ARRL DX contest and even with 6,000+
contacts I saw no slowdown except during saves. I only save during a gap
in QSO's so that is not an issue. Can you change your recording to a
smaller file size?

I've noticed that Writelog has slowed down to the extent that Super Check
Partial doesn't update for a few seconds and there is a delay in being able
to enter a call when a backup is written after a couple of thousand calls
are in the log. This is on an old XP computer that has only developed this
problem recently. I record audio to the hard drive.
I was thinking about getting an SSD drive to speed things up. Apart from
saving the log and audio to the SSD drive, any suggestions for what other
Writelog I/O functions might be moved to the SSD drive that might help solve
the problem? Any other suggestions are welcome. I have found that not having
a browser open while using Writelog helps a little.
