Those calculations each time there is any update to anything in any of the PivotTables. I see this most often with some complex DAX measures in the data model that are doing nested scans of very large tables, and performing

To be working in Excel at the time, it can feel like Excel is hung, when the reality is that my computer is busy with something else.ģ - Sometimes add-ins or VBA code or other apps perform operations that can take a while to perform and can make the app seem busy.Ĥ - If the workbook has connections to external data, the data provider (or connector or link) will sometimes try to connect to the remote data source, and if there's a connectivity problem, there can be a delay while Excel waits for the attempted connectionĥ - Sometimes there can be a formula or calculation that is particularly expensive in terms of the compute power it requires. When my IT department decides to deploy new builds to my machine or perform special virus scans, my machine gets crazy busy/slow while that is going on. You have a very large workbook that takes some time to save, and it can get even worse when it's being saved to a remote machine over a slow connection.Ģ - Sometimes I encounter delays that are due to other things happening on my computer. (See if changing the AutoRecover settings in Options changes this behavior for you.) This can feel like a temporary hang if

Let me list aġ - Excel might be saving the file to disk so that AutoRecover can have a restore point in the event of a crash or other problem. In fact the odds are enormous that hitting a memory limit is not the issue for you. Having said that, there are many, many reasons why you might encounter a delay or hang that have nothing whatsoever to do with hitting any memory limits. It doesn't matter how much memory I'm using overall. In the picture below you can see that I have a workbook open in Excel and Excel is using more than 400 MB of memory. Note that you want to look at memory usage for each process separately.

If you're running 32 bit Office in this screen shot, you might be hitting the memory

Any hang or freeze that you are encountering is due to something else. If your screen shot was taken while using 64 bit Office, then you're not running out of memory.

It's always important to avoid hitting memory limits, because when that happens, Windows will start paging memory in and out, and performance will become so terrible that the machine will effectively be unusable, and the computerĬan take hours to return to a workable state. 32 bit Excel will never use more than 2 GB of memory. For large data sets, 64 bit Excel is clearly the way to go.

This issue is completely separate from the memory usage issues mentioned earlier in this thread. If you want to add columns beside your PivotTable, I would encourage you to use cell references instead, because referring to cell D1234 will be MUCH faster, and in this scenario your formulas are dependent on the PivotTable layout staying the same. One processor at 100% while the others are waiting. This will all happen on a single logical processor, so if you have four logical processors it will appear that the CPU is 25% busy, but viewing the breakdown, you'll see To 156,000 rows will require calculating nearly a million instances of the function. Adding six columns of GETPIVOTDATA formulas It is intended to be used to pluck specific values out of a PivotTable in a way that will continue to work if the layout of the PivotTable changes. GETPIVOTDATA is known to be an expensive calculation to perform.

Is there any other config on the PC that would attribute to this? Most importantly though is that as i stated at the beginning of this reply is neither the CPU or RAM in its entirety is being utilised. Instantaneous, add 1 column of GETPIVOTDATA, it falls over (shows a not responding message and my screen looks like _Santiagos below) and takes ages to populate the data, add 6 additional columns of GETPIVOTDATA and easily takes 1-2 hours to do the calcs. To clarify, that the only formulas in this workbook that are not acting on the same row are GETPIVOTDATA formulas and this is where the issue stems from as when these formulas are not in the WB the recalculations on ~20 columns by 156,000 rows is virtually The workbook is configured to use all 8 cores so the issue i feel is I did notice that all of these calcs are only using 1 core and this one core is maxxed out at near 100% all the time. At most my CPU runs at 23-25% and Ram usage is typically around 17%.
