Big volume of data problems

Hi again.
I've imported transactions since 01.2008 and iCompta Mobile become almost unusable. The main issue is performance and second one is reliability.
Performance:
It loading data at startup for 60-70 seconds and the same time for saving.
Opening budgets and looking charts is so slow that almost unusable.
Could you do something with performance on big amount of data? May be I can somehow limit the data to synchronize to Iphone?
The editing budgets on Iphone completely stuck, even scrolling do so slow :(

Reliability:
Synchronizations works only from 3rd-4th try.
It seems that if lock timeout expires it broke synchronization session. Sometimes it just exit(crash?) in end of sync (none changed/saved on Iphone) :( .

When I add new transaction I have to save database and it takes more than minute. If I do not save after every transaction it could loose them on iphone lock (because sometimes it exit/crash? on lock).
Could you somehow change saving mechanism to save DB (incremental) on every new transaction?
The adding new transaction to account with big amount of transactions is slow too 5-10 seconds to change fields like "amount" and comment.

Could you speedup program?

It is great program anyway, but you have to do something with performance for sure.

PS. Could you extend bar graph with net view where you will show net bars = income-expense for every selected period? This view more helpful and understandable how good or bad i preforms.

PS2. Iphone, Budget view. Could you change font to smaller one or remove words Income/Expense from headers of corresponding sections because it takes space and values become invisible(cut at the end)? Actually I see only first value of pair: actual/planned.

Thank you for your work.

Up.
Any thought about topic?
I've removed transactions prior 01.01.2010 and it still to slow. Changing fields at creating new transaction takes 2-5 seconds.

Which iPhone do you have ? Also can you send me your .compta file by making a mail backup to cyril.anger@lyricapps.com so that I can test and see why it takes so long ?

Thanks for your help, changing fields and editing budgets should be much faster in next update. Loading and saving require a lot more work so I plan to improve this but not in the next update.
