Hi all
My role is very data heavy, lots of excel/power query ect. Working with sheets that have about 2000 rows and 40 ish columns. If i use formulas like index-match the laptop grinds to a halt and take a couple of minutes to recover. Even filtering columns can cause it to grind to a halt. This really affects my productivity.
I am going to ask for a better specced machine but just wondered if others had a similar experience? Is it something i could be doing better or is the below cpu/ram just not good enough for large spreadshseets.
CPU is an I5-8265
8gb ram
edit: wrong section maybe?
