[tw] Re: Weird error
Hi Alex, It would be nice to know your OS, Browser + Version, TW Version. Do you use TiddlyFox with FF? How big is your TW - file size. Did you install any new Browser AddOns or Browser Apps? ... If so just disable them and try again. -mario -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

Re: [tw] Re: Weird error
Hi Mario, It would be nice to know your OS, Browser + Version, TW Version. Yeah, sorry, I should have thought to provide that information. So, let's see... I'm running a linux box (KDE on Mandriva). I typically use Firefox (an old version, admittedly, 10.0.5, but as I've said other tiddly files work fine so I'd be surprised if this was the issue). As for TW, it's a somewhat old version as well (and a modified one). Quoting from the relevant 'AboutTWW' tiddly: Tiddlywiki Write (updated 11-22-10) is an implementation of the Tiddlywiki concept (version 2.6.1) and is an experiment in mind mapping for writers. Do you use TiddlyFox with FF? How big is your TW - file size. I don't use TiddlyFox (first time I even hear about it, heh). Regarding size, ah, well, that's another thing ;-) The file is fairly large, 7.5 MB. Did you install any new Browser AddOns or Browser Apps? ... If so just disable them and try again. No, not that I can think of. And that's perhaps the most puzzling of all :-o It may be the file size, though, that is causing the problem. The other file I tested with yesterday was much smaller. I just tried with another large one (7.9 MB) and the first time I tried to save, nothing happened. The second time, Firefox crashed. Then again, I had a lot of tabs open and I've noticed before that FF (this version anyway) can be a bit unstable with too many open tabs. Thing is, now that I've restarted FF, I can save again just fine :-o Very weird.

Re: [tw] Re: Weird error
Still wondering what caused this, though. Are there known issues linked to file size? If so, this could happen again and even possibly get worse, so it'd be good to know... How large can I allow a TW to grow? Alex. On Wednesday 29 April 2015, PMario wrote: On Wednesday, April 29, 2015 at 10:50:23 AM UTC+2, Alex S.

There have been some tests with big embedded images, where the TW file was 50+MByte. It was slow but worked using latest FF. I did some tests with 20.000+ tiddlers. File Size 20MB and up. Performance info was with my old single core 2 threaded Notebook. see: [1] 20'000 tiddlers https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/tiddlywiki/E9DMg4ZTccw/P1qjS_-HOjAJ [2] 100'000 tiddlers https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/sH4EZukozdM/PM4P3Iy_iWoJ I did the [1] test just now with 40.000 tiddlers and with my actual computer it saves just fine. 46MB file size. It isn't convenient to work with, but it shouldn't crash the browser. have fun! mario -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.
