<p>OpenLP 1.0 beta3 loads its database much, much slower than .994 did. This (bug?) appears to make the program hang during the splash screen (for several minutes depending on the DB size!). For test case, use a song database >= 1.5 mb with >200 authors (which is a very reasonable size IMO). A DB with the same contents that will load almost instantly in .994 now can take several minutes. (I have sample junk databases available if needed.)</p> <p>This issue is not apparent with the database provided because it is very small compared to those used at many churches.</p> <p>Let me know if more info is needed. The severity us this bug will of course depend on the speed of your machine.</p>
