At Iron Software, we’re constantly innovating to deliver the best possible tools for developers. With the release of IronXL, we’re taking a step forward in Excel file processing. This update is more than just a performance boost, it enhances how you work with Excel files, combining exceptional speed with remarkable memory efficiency to unlock your development potential.

From Great to Exceptional: The New Benchmarks of Speed

IronXL has always been about reliable performance, but we’ve taken things to a whole new level. With a refined and centralized formula evaluation engine, IronXL's new update is up to 40x faster, setting a new benchmark for Excel processing.

What Does 40x Faster Look Like?
Picture this: processing a 26,000 row Excel file now takes just 1.3 seconds, a task that previously took 52.4 seconds. This dramatic leap means that what was already efficient is now lightning-fast, letting you handle large datasets with unparalleled ease.

This isn't about fixing a problem, it's about elevating an already robust tool to make your development workflow smoother, faster, and smarter.

Efficiency Without Limits: Redefining Memory Usage

Performance isn’t just about speed; it’s also about resource optimization. In the update of IronXL v2024.12, we’ve introduced a centralized formula evaluator, replacing the old system of one evaluator per cell. This eliminates redundant computations, drastically cutting down on memory usage.

The Numbers Tell the Story:
Memory consumption has been reduced from 19.5 GB to under 1 GB, making IronXL compatible with lower-spec machines such as laptops and cost-efficient cloud servers.
Why It Matters:
Whether you’re developing on a machine with 4-8 GB of RAM or working in resource-limited environments, you’ll enjoy smooth performance without crashes, slowdowns, or the need for expensive hardware upgrades.
