Archiving Records To Improve Performance

[Michael Luderitz]

I have been using Gnucash for over 5 years, accumulating all the data in a
single file name. Opening the file and saving it has become more and more
time consuming. Is there a way to archive the prior years so that only one
or two years are carried forward in the active file?
