Trados 2021 is very slow

Hi,

I am using Trados Studio Freelance Plus 2021 SR2. When I move from one segment to the next, the system lags. It also takes a long time for segment matches to appear when I move to the next segment. Why is that?

  • Hi  and 

    I have a group of things that I do if Studio is slow or crashes e.g. with a big/old/slow file:

    1) Go to File > Options > Editor > Automation then UNtick 'Enable LookAhead' under 'Translation Memory' and UNtick 'Enable verification of segment' under 'After Confirming Segments Manually'

    Trados Studio Options window showing Editor settings with 'Enable LookAhead' and 'Enable verification of segment' options unchecked to improve performance.

    Both these options should help speed things up. You can then verify the file after you've finished working on it all in one go via the Review tab > Verify or by clicking F8.

    Then, in the Project Settings (or via File>Options if you create your own projects or work via Translate Single File), turn OFF upLift Match Repair:

    Trados Studio Project Settings window with 'Match Repair' option turned off under the Translation Memory and AutoSuggest settings.

    Turning this setting off seems to help with files that for some reason cause Studio to crash. I am sure it helps with speed too.

    If you want to know what any setting means under File > Options or under Project Settings, click the Help button bottom right of the settings window:

    Trados Studio Project Settings window displaying Match Repair Usage information with Editor and Batch Tasks options set to Off.

    Keeping these settings turned on if you need them works just fine if you have a hi-spec fast computer and an excellent broadband connection. However, in less than perfect scenarios, it can help to turn one or all of them off. I always have them all turned off unless I need them, and Studio works well for me...

    I hope this helps,

    All the best,

    Ali Slight smile
