I am not sure and, because of the performance issues I have discussed perviously I do not have the time/patience to try this, but would it help to empty the recycle bin using the following method?

1. Highlight all items in the recycle bin.
2. Use SHIFT+DELETE to permanently remove the items.

I suggest this work around because this does not allow for any reversal (undo). I suspect this reduces any overhead caused by the undo feature. I have no idea how much it would improve the performance on my end. Kinook can confirm.

I should explain that many of my databases have to be "distrbuted" to other colleagues who rely on UR's viewer. Kind of like a very structured pdf file. This is why I need to copy (and sometimes export) large numbers of items into new databases. The time and effort it takes to accomplish this is a killer.
