SUMMARY When reconciling a credit card account, if "Configure->Ledger->Data entry->Automatic reconciliation" is checked, and all transactions to be reconciled are already cleared (after downloading transactions for example, so the Cleared balance == the Ending balance in the reconcile wizard), the reconcile wizard goes into a CPU loop (100% of 1 cpu). kmymoney has to be killed. This only happens if "Automatic reconciliation" is checked. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open a credit card account and download transactions so that the cleared balance in kmymoney equals the current statement balance. 2. Reconcile in kmymoney. At the end of the reconcile wizard, kmymoney locks up (becomes unresponsive) and has to be killed 3. OBSERVED RESULT Kmymoney locks up following reconciliation wizard, using 12% cpu on 8-thread system EXPECTED RESULT Continue with account reconciliation.

Analysis showed, that the automatic algorithm is not performing well when working on a larger set of (not reconciled or cleared) transactions (maybe more than a few tens). This seems to apply only if there is a difference between the sum of all transactions and the expected amount. In case there is no difference, the wizard returns immediately.
Git commit f4c359840e16d6c91dc7db8480209c56557046cc by Thomas Baumgart. Committed on 14/03/2019 at 17:32. Pushed by tbaumgart into branch '5.0'. Improve automatic reconciliation It took way too long for the number of combinations to calculate. The total of combinations checked has been reduced from 300.000 to 60.000 before the search is terminated. Also, the progress bar has been fixed so that there is some visual feedback to the user during the calculations.
