Hello there,

After having many test cases, test suites, objects etc. in my project katalon is starting to run rly slowly. Do you guys have the same issue after adding multiple tests in one project? Should i create a new project and seperate some of the tests?

Thanks

Hi everyone,

We have a significant update on this in v8.2.0 recently, now:

- Improved loading time in Katalon Runtime Engine. Results from our benchmarking tests show: 2x faster for big projects, 1.5x faster for small and medium projects.
- Improved responsiveness and loading time for big projects in Katalon Studio. Results from our benchmarking tests show: renaming/opening test cases 2x faster, moving test cases 1.5x faster.
- Reduced 12% memory consumption on average of Katalon Studio when opening/executing tests.
- Reduced 30% memory consumption on average of Katalon Runtime Engine for long execution sessions.

Please first check out the [release note](https://docs.katalon.com/katalon-studio/new/version-8x.html#enhancements)and click [here](https://github.com/katalon-studio/katalon-studio/releases/tag/v8.2.0)to download if you want to try out version 8.2.0 (stable).
