Help for Exporting the Descendants GEDCOM

The time required for this process can be very long, typically tripling for each added population that is significantly populated. Therefore, a generation limit is presented.

One example of a 10-generation GEDCOM for an individual born before 1640 required about 30 minutes. There is no way to terminate the process before completion.
