Help with slow product manipulation

[JSutton]

We have recently gone from approximately 4,000 products to 22,000 and we are
having problems with how fast we can manipulate products. I expected that
the added products would take more time to process for things like images,
power edit, and publishing. We have had some instances where it took 7
minutes to assign 5 images through power edit after the save changes button
was clicked. We were going through 8 pages of 60 items per day before the
products were uploaded now it takes 3 days to do 1 page.

I was hoping that some of you out there with a large number of items would
share your experience. How does the software work for you? We have been
using shopsite for 4 years now and couldn't be happier. We spoke to our host
about it and they pretty much said more products means more time and that
nothing is wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Justin

We don't have that many products but Barney Stone's Product Manager will
help... since you'll be updating the products offline there won't be any
lag. Then you just do a database upload and generate your store.
