EViews.com

hi,

I am using eviews9 enterprise version. When I tried to save some files, the program is particularly slow and stuck on saving for at least 3-5 mins. It happens to some files, not all, which is strange

Also, when doing OLS, the program slows when I use syntax like variable(x to y) -- instead, if I change to variable(x) variable (y), that problem does not appear. (x, y here specifies time, such as -1 to -12 and etc.)

Is anyone having the same issue? The program still works but just takes too much time running

Thanks

Tomorrow morning the EViews folks are likely to ask you two questions.

(1) Are you saving the files to a network drive, rather than a local drive?
(2) What is the build date of your copy of EViews?

Your post implies we don't work evenings.

Regarding the first question, I have similar problems, see further viewtopic.php?f=8&t=9981

I'd also like to know:

1. How large is your workfile (file size, number of observations, number of series)
2. When you save to the network, is the folder being hosted by a Windows server or something else? Is this a cloud drive?
3. If you save the file locally, then manually copy the file to the network location, how long does the copy take?
