Hello,

We're using Installshield Express X in our organisation. Our setup
consists of roughly 2000 files for a total of about 25MB once it's all
packaged together in the installer. Our files are splitted across two
features.

Currently as it is moving a file from one feature to another is
roughly 4 minutes. We find it takes about a day for the build engineer
to achieve anything tangible on the installer on average due to the
slowness of installshield. This is unusable and unacceptable. It
confuses the heck of me too how doing something so simple as tagging a
file to a category (feature) would take so long to do...

Is this a known issue, and is there a workaround that we can follow?

Thank,

Eric
