Hi
Has anyone noticed if AGGREGATE() processes data faster than SUBTOTAL() if you have a lot of data you are calculating?
Thanks.

Square and cube roots
The =SQRT(25) is a square root. For a cube root, use =125^(1/3). For a fourth root, use =625^(1/4).
In a simple test, Aggregate is about 1.4 times faster:

The data is correct, but the statement is wrong; SUBTOTAL is faster.
