[Qgis-user] QGIS 3.4.2 still very slow to work in Windows 10

[Patrick Dunford]

As far as I know, development is done mainly in Linux

The Windows and Mac editions are ports off this. I am sure the 
developers and port teams do their best but you can run into issues that 
are platform specific and are hard to resolve. Particularly as it is 
dependent on third party libraries that again may be less well supported 
on all the platforms.

I haven't used Qgis on Windows in a number of years, this is why I would 
suggest virtualisation of a Linux environment as an option, the virtual 
machines when I ran them could do 99% of what you could expect in a 
native installation and were pretty solid as a working environment. You 
would probably find that to be a more stable way of running Qgis 3 on 
Windows, if that were an option for you.
