That's a pretty ridiculous pace.
I take it you're using deja vu, right? How long would it take to import such a file?


Trados might have a faster import/export, but I am quite happy with the translation features of DVX, so I do not see any reason to switch.



... and I didn't mean that you should switch at all, I was just surprised that it takes so long with DVX compared to trados. As I said, it's just text and you have reasonably powerful hardware. Inefficient implementation I guess.

Import first into the lexicon Sep 4, 2008

I've been trying to get up the nerve to import that awful TM from the EU for months, but I'd have to plan to have the system tied up for a few days.


You could import it first into the Lexicon which is lightning fast in comparison (only taking a few minutes) and then send the lexicon to the TM which again only takes a short time.
Importing big TMs straight into a DVX MDB does indeed take an inordinate amount of time so there must be major flaw somewhere in the works. I believe Atril have identified the problem and are working on it.
