Hello everyone, I have an old application based on Filemaker pro 6 (on Windows platform) for populate its internal tables, uses text files containing up to 50000 lines. The import time take from 3 minutes to 6 minutes (depending on the type of computer it is installed on). I ask you: Do you think there is a way to speed up this process by changing paging, cache or other?

This is likely due to a flawed data structure.

As before. The design of the structure matters too. The amount of fields in each of the 50,000 lines is very important.

Unfortunately I can't make changes to the project. However, thank you all a thousand times.
