In the past few weeks, my TW5 file has grown from 2.4MB to just over 3MB. This has resulted in a noticeable slow down of the file. Making changes to any tiddler now takes between 3 and 4 seconds - every time! Also, saving the file a full 7 seconds. That seems like an eternity in computer

See Performance If your current sidebar tab contains a long list (e.g. the Recent tab), it slows down TW. As if you've opened tiddlers with a lot of lists. As an example, my 4,5 Mb TW saves in ~4s if I'm on the Recent tab, and less than 2s if I'm on "Open"

TW5 doesn't use any special indexing like real databases. So the performance is going to be tied to your hardware. You don't mention how many Ghz your ultrabook runs at. My desktop I3 3.6Ghz desktop machine can save a tiddler and then save a 3.5mb TW in under one second. I guess the main

I thought I would add a couple of points to this discussion: 1. I understand that Dropbox breaks files up into blocks of about 4MB and only synchronises blocks that have changed. This should mean that the sync time will not get much worse after the 4MB file size is reached. 2. I set up a

Nobody mentioned it yet, I don't think, but for TiddlyWiki5 there is a NodeJS edition that syncs changes to the file system live. It has a little webserver which serves the save all template to the browser, and then the browser syncs its changes with the server. It's not quite realtime, but it's

I know that I mentioned it several times, but, anyway: I am working on a plugin for TW that uses pouchdb as a store for tiddlers. This means an in-browser database with the possibility to synchronize to an external couch database. The plugin will also provide a way to save the DB as regular

Thank God it's 2.7MB, not 2.7GB. I just thought my 22MB TiddlySpace space was so easily out-sized. Big TWC files do function okay, but save and load slowly. Hopefully someday TW5 can save them. RickL於 2015年8月2日星期日 UTC+8上午6時55分25秒寫道: Yes, of course it is 2.7 MB - sorry for that...don't know

Unless we can make some sort of tiddler based database inside an html file you may have to have separate archive wikis you move old things into to keep the size of your main wiki down. Or maybe we could make a plugin that can archive tiddlers by bundling them into a disabled plugin. That way

Are you sure that it's 2.7 GB? Not maybe 2.7 Mb? that's an astounding amount of information. It's hard to imagine that you're experiencing only a little lag saving/loading. I can't think how you could have acquired that much data -- unless you're loading it up with images. If so, then the
