Seamonkey is currently a 32-bit application; are you running
a 32-bit or 64-bit O/S, and if the former, are you using PAE,
4GT or AWE ?  Only 4GT is likely to be of help -- it would allow
a 32-bit application such as Seamonkey to use 3GB of RAM.

where are stored the sessions? problem with sessions not restored

2012-02-27 Thread Gabriel

Hello all,

yesterday morning I closed SM normally (SM 2.8b4 on OSX Snow Leo), and when 
I opened it today there was only 1 blank window, instead of about 10 tabs 
that I usually have!

I don't know what happened, it's the 1st time I see this problem.

I use TimeMachine, so I'd like to manually restore the previous open window 
with all the tabs, but where does SM store these informations?


tnx
Gabriel

You need the Session Manager addon!  It's awesome.

Re: Recommendations for high-memory usage

2012-02-27 Thread Jesse Molina


Hi.  I am currently on a 3.1.0-1-686-pae kernel.  I am aware that 
Seamonkey is only 32 bit and of the 2GB limitation, and I've seen it max 
out at 2GB many times before.


I regret that it may be some time... if ever, that we see Seamonkey go 
64bit.  So much old code in there.

Philip, in the original Post, the OP stated My platform is Linux 
32-bit.  - Why they have 16GB of ram is beyond me!!

Jesse, the SeaMonkey Council has been releasing an unsupported 64bit 
SeaMonkey since back in the SM 1.x.x daysI am posting this reply 
using SM 64bit on my Mandriva Linux!!


Also have SM 64 bit on my Windows 7 Pro!!

Very few problems on either!

I've found That applications that run in 64bit mode on my Macbook Pro 
(with 8gb Ram) that 64 bit programs seem to freeze much more and exibit 
strange symptoms. Even the system runs better as 32 bit. One nice thing 
is apps in 32 bit don't drain the battery excessively like 64bit does.


(Computer was bought a year ago the 18th of this month.)

Instead of using Time Machine to restore a session, you can (in 
SeaMonkey) open the *Go* menu and select *Restore Previous Session*


If you still need to manually restore the files,
1. On the menu bar, click on the Help menu and select Troubleshooting 
Information. The Troubleshooting Information tab will open.
2. Under the Application Basics section, click on [Show in Finder]. A 
Finder window with your profile folder will open.

3. Open Time Machine in that folder and restore the files:
sessionstore.bak
sessionstore.json

Re: Recommendations for high-memory usage

Oh really... I had no idea.

Do any plugins or addons have any problem with it?

Do you know of any other trouble that I might want to look out for?

Thanks for the tip!  I will definitely try it out.
