Reports very slow to open

There has been a long standing problem with reports that need to process a
lot of records being slow to open for most every release in the 2.6 series
in Windows, if I recall.  However, if release 2.6.19 is now slow even with
simple reports, that is a new issue.  I think that the upcoming 3.0 series
will be substantially improved.

Do you have any memorized reports that are very simple to process, say a
balance report for a small number of accounts?  Are those slow to open too?
