V3.6-RC1 Build 4010

Hello, I downloaded and am using this version (because the older versions would not connect to Withings).  This version is EXTREMELY slow.  I am running Windows, fast gaming laptop.  You press a button or try to lopen a ride, or do anyting on the UI and it takes forever to react and do anything.

See the troubleshooting section in FAQs, starting with https://github.com/GoldenCheetah/GoldenCheetah/wiki/Graphics-are-slow-on-my-laptop

Thanks.  This very much not the problem, although I did follow the advice above and adjust graphics setting for GC as directed.   The whole program just seems to hang and respond very very s-l-o-w-l-y.  As I said, it is not the laptop, which is high performance with a good graphics card, which supports minecraft etc.

That is the most common performance issue on Windows, laptop or not.

OTOH,  if you recently upgraded GC, beware initial metrics re-computation can use almost all available resources, so until it finishes, GC may be painfully slow.

May i add the worst performance hog that i encountered: opening GC in a Windows compatibility mode

" OTOH,  if you recently upgraded GC, beware initial metrics re-computation can use almost all available resources, so until it finishes, GC may be painfully slow."  I did recently upgrade GC and it seems like every time I start it, it is doing...something.  But how LONG does it take?  It has been days.  It loaded all my rides for 4 years.  It has calcuated my CTL and PMC charts....what else is there?

It depends on how many activities and user metrics you have, but you will see a blue progress bar, below the chart bar, while refresh is running. If you close GC before refresh ends, it will start from scratch the next run.
