Price Editor/Database lag

[David G. Pickett]

Now that I am manually updating my stocks monthly, thanks, Yahoo, I find 
that as I pull up the price history to clone a new month end entry for 
the symbol, I get a _*long (30 second) gray out delay*_ (on Linux, and 
not the newest PC) at some point in the cycle, like a premature auto 
save or something.  This makes the process detestibly slow, 40 seconds a 
symbol!  Any suggestions?
