Since I downloaded v.40, all my articles etc., are really slow to open. I get the little "wheel" that spins. I'm using an iMac with the latest OS. Is anyone else having this issue?

    Yes. Very slow. MacBook Air M3 (2024). It now takes 8-10 seconds to open books and other resources.

    Exactly, Brother Dunstan Enzor. I was showing my sister-in-law Logos (she didn't know anything about it), and it hung up on me. Very embarrassing. It wasn't a good promo for Logos.

    On my Macs (the oldest of which is 2022), v40 itself is fast to load (e.g., to the Dashboard), but when I tell it what I want, e.g., a book or a layout, it takes 20-50 seconds to load whatever it was I clicked on. In the grand scheme of things, that's not very long, but with computers it's a really long time. In Logos 10, it was essentially instantaneous. This began before v40, but after Logos 10, I think probably with the first build that no longer said Logos 10.

    This has also been my experience with 40.o on Mac OS. The first layout after starting Logos takes an unreasonable time to load. Overall, I have seen m ore beachballs lately than I have seen since the release of Logos10.0. Logos, you are moving in the wrong direction speed wise.

    +1, just want to add my voice to those experiencing a slowdown. I'm using 40.1 on a Mac M1.

    Logos starts up quickly, but when I try to load a resource for the first time the beach ball appears and Logos freezes for about 8-10 seconds.

    This has never happened with Logos 10 and really impedes workflow. Can something be done about this?

    +1 here too.

    40.1 MacOS. First resource of the day gets a spinning beach ball for about 10 seconds.

    I'm using Logos today, and my articles are getting hung up. This was never an issue before v40. I hope the tech people know about it and are working on it. If anyone knows what's going on, please let me know.

    Can also confirm the same issue for me and I'm on Windows. I'm a new user of Logos and at first it was pretty great but with the recent updates things seem to have slowed down and it really is a pain to have to wait for a resource to load or to experience the delay when you click on something and it takes a while to open.

    I'm also not running old or outdated hardware so I know that would not be the issue.

    Hope this can get fixed soon.

    This was a new (old) development… I haven't seen the forever spinning sync wheel for a very, very long time, but here it is:

    Grevious — as my old friend used to say.

    Could this be the same issue reported here?
