It really amazes me that the OP has these problems with memoQ. I have had slow computers with memoQ and it worked really fast! Today I use a much better machine and even auto-propagation of a segment hundreds of times is a matter of 3 seconds at most, even with a large memory and a large file.
I really think your problems relate more to your previous setup (antivirus and its settings being the most probable cause) or to a non-Kilgray component used by memoQ, which could be wrongly installed or of an incorrect version.
Have you tried the following:
- Uninstall memoQ, uninstall all versions of .NET Framework you may have in your computer, and then install memoQ again (this will effectively install the .NET Framework version included in memoQ's setup)
- Uninstall your antivirus software, see whether memoQ runs smoothly, then reinstall your antivirus software.
Two quick comments:
- The size of the file you are translating is irrelevant once it is imported, since after importing, the file is already a set of records in a database and no longer a file per se, as it happens with SDL Studio. memoQ does not have to open/keep in memory/save the whole file as happens with SDL Studio.
- Taking of antivirus: do you use a server with memoQ or is everything used in the same machine? Some time ago I found that if I disabled antivirus protection of the server's drive in the client machine, speed increased considerably (the server already has its own antivirus). If you use a server, find the settings where you can disable antivirus scanning of server shares and give it a try.
