Now on Windows 8.1 I notice that auto-propagation (numbers) is slower than ever, and by far crosses the border of utter absurdity. It takes literally 5x as much time I would need to do it all manually - no matter the settings. On Win7 it still was not THAT slow (although bordering on absurdity as well).
Are there any tricks, like which programs to make an exception for in Windows Defender? (I have added several, including the Studio, but none seems relevant for auto-prop)

I also noticed now in Win8.1 Studio uses maximum of 31% base frequency/usage of CPU (only the first core), does anyone know why is that so? On Win7 it at least used the 1 core properly.
This latter one is a serious issue as it slows down the entire Studio, so SDL team please do address it. ▲ Collapse

| Filter for numbers | Jan 23, 2014 |
At the beginning of a project filter to display segments that have only numbers in them, select all, copy source to target, and lock segments.

yes, if you don't have to localise them...

I thought you'd localise numbers into Slovenian, but obviously I was wrong...

I wanted to say "which usually is the case", Giovanni. Sorry, my lapsus..
Any further suggestions to speed up the big snail?

I assumed that if the segments contain only numbers then they are likely to be bullet points or other non-localized content and not units of measurement/currencies/dates.
If one is working with numbers that require localization, there are two options that I can think of:

2) If the units are not recognized and/or part of a segment that also contains text: Copy all to target and at the end of the project do a Regex search and replace or use the TermInjector OX app to localize the numbers.
These are workarounds in a way, so none of them will be a blanket-perfect solution.

Do you work with ttx files?
If so, make sure "Generate document structure information" is not checked before you prepare the project
Unchecking this option will speed up AP considerably.

Thank you for jumping in, Emma!
Actually I did this one just with my last ttx project, and then I got the feedback from client the "ttx files were not saved correctly".
Do this "structure information" affect the way the T2007 will then read the final ttx version, in any way? What are they?

TOPIC STARTER SITE LOCALIZER | Doesn't do the trick either... | Jan 23, 2014 |
Unchecking of "Generate document structure information" does not do much for me here either speed-wise.
I guess we need a larger Win8.1 patch.
| | | | | Get rid of translation memories and termbases | Jan 31, 2014 |
I have found that if you just uncheck your translation memories and termbases before going to all your numbers, etc. that will be autopropagated, it works like a charm. I just did a job where 3100 instances of numbers were autopropagated in about 2 seconds. With translation memories and termbases activated, the same task would typically take somewhere between 5 and 10 minutes.

If you're using realtime preview, it'll help a lot to close it during autopropagation.

... have a play with the SDLXLIFF Toolkit. Not too hard to use and you can localise number only segments for an entire Project easily and quickly : http://wp.me/p2xDjK-tu

This (disabling the TM, no need to turn off termbases) really WORKS, I tried it with the most problematic 20kw file from last week, which before would take an hour - without the TM the Studio does it in a millisecond! And localization works perfectly too, while at it.
And since nothing is gained from the TM concerning numbers (by default the recognition is incorrect for my language), this is the best workaround I could never had wished for.
Thanks a lot, Tlovheim, I owe you at least a beer!
