Terrible recalculation speed on Ryzen processor
Something has happened recently to my copy of Excel 2021. Perhaps it is an update, I'm not sure. My large spreadsheet model now takes 40 seconds to recalculate on my Ryzen 7 3700x, a 16 thread CPU....

How many cores is Excel set to use during calculating? File, Options, Advanced tab, scroll down to the Formulas section
- ctz69Oct 14, 2022Copper ContributorThanks for the reply. It says use all processors on this computer: 16. Also says 16 threads in status bar when calculating. All add-ins are disabled as well. Also tried deleting and reinstalling with no improvement.

ctz69 I would do the following:
- Open the offending file
- Make sure what is visible isn't sensitive information
- Click Help, Feedback, I don't like something
- Describe your issue as exact as you can, including the processor information and the fact that Excel says to use all of the cores
- Add your email address if you want MSFT to be able to contact you about this. They really sometimes do that!
