Very slow to open catalog

Hi guys

I'm new to Capture one, and I recently move to Capture one from Lightroom.

My problem is that my catalog is very slow to open (30 - 60 sec), and I would like to get some help to speed it up a bit 😊
My computer is 27" iMac (2.9Ghz i5 w fusion drive) my RAW images are on a Thunder bolt external HDD. I have a single catalog with all my images (some 30K images).

Would it help to split up my catalog? Are there any other tricks I could use to speed up C1?

Thanks

  Hi,
  
  I have 17000+ files, and my catalog opens in less than 10 seconds (which is slower however than Lightroom).
  I have only one catalog. I work with a MacBook Pro Retina 15" (early 2013), 16GB RAM, i7 2.3 GHz processor. My RAW are on an external USB2.0 HDD.
  I am not sure it could be the origin of your trouble, but : what is the size of your previews ? Is Open CL activated in your preferences ?

  30 to 60 seconds isn't that uncommon, at least in my experience.I have around 40,000 images.
  
  Thats one reason why I use sessions when working on a particular project. Once all editing is done, I'll move the session photos into the general catalog. Within the catalog, I'll create a collection for that shoot.
  
  One other thing, C1 will remember the last thing you were working on. So if you create a collection, and close it, C1 will open up within that collection. The fewer photos it has to open with, the quicker it loads. So opening in a collection of a couple hundred pics will be faster.

  What happens if you first disconnect your external Drive and then start C1 again?
  You can try to check/ repair catalog, maybe is there a issue.

  Thanks guys!
  
  Open CL was deactivate, switching that on improve the loading speed from 3 min to 10-20 sec 😊
