Description

Hello,
I've a script that update attribute table.
With QGis 3.2.2 the commit operation (saving memory updates to disk file) is incredibely longer as it is with Qgis 2.18 several years comparing to a few minutes

Thjis is very annoying, so that I can't use Qgis 3.2.2 for such tasks

Thank you in advance

Some more details would be helpful.
Can you please attach a project and data and step-by-step procedure to reproduce the issue?

#2 Updated by Patrick Palmier over 5 years ago

To reproduce the issue, you have to:

open a big vector layer (in my example 500 000 rows) in Qgis 2.18 and Qgis 3.2 (
update a field with the network calculator (ex: update a numeric field with the length or area of the geometry ($length or $area)
commit the changes when you quit editing mode
in qgis 2.18 il will take a few seconds or a few minutes while in qgis 3.2 more than one hour (may be several hours)

PS: I can't attach data as it needs a huge layer to see a very big difference in commit time between qgis 2.18 and qgis 3.2 (>5Mb)

I used the dataset in the description here #19774 and confirm the issue on QGIS/Master.

to tell the truth seems pretty slow also on QGIS 2.18 to me.
