All software has a limit. For example: I use Microsoft Excel a lot to control the economy of my department. I have many sheets in the same file with all years.Over time my file grew up more and more. With 8 years it was slow. Now with 14 years its imposible to open it. My solution: archive the

h0p3, Actually you don't need to delete the tiddler, but to hide it (by moving to page toolbar dropdown for example in ControlPanel -> Apperance -> Toolbars -> Page Toolbar). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group. To unsubscribe from

A quick point for performance. Close the sidebar or hide the sidebar tabs or select the contents tab since what is visible in your tab often needs to be refreshed. This simple strategy can improve performance in both tw5 and Tec. As I understand it if you use skinny tiddlers or external images

h0p3, First of all, a great respect for you and for the unique design of your wiki! I haven't read your writings yet, but what I've seen is like it. I started to investigate what could be the problem and tried the following (after each steps, I checked whether the speed had improved by

h0p3 for you site https://philosopher.life have you tried disabling plugins? >From what I've heard, 1+ mostly text based tiddlers shouldn't be a problem in TW. My (not very qualified) guess is that you're using some plugins or templates that cause a lot of repeated and nested iterations or

What are the performance issues you are encountering? I'm a touch typist, but I could only get about two words ahead when typing. But according to your blog, if it's not fiction, you use typewriter for creating content, so typing shouldn't be a big deal. It does take about 7 seconds to save

If you already use Bob than you can use it to manage multiple wikis. I suspect that most of the time you don't have any reason to have full access to 30MB worth of text. So splitting things out into separate wikis by category would be my first suggestion. Since you are already using statics

One more thing, Do not assume your current methods are the optimal methods. Perhaps you just need to redesign some components. Are your filters efficient? Do they eliminate the largest number of tiddlers in the first filter operator?, should you be giving yourself read only views, rather than

h03p, Sounds like this is a case where TiddlyWiki's success means your demand on it increased. As they say, "our needs expand to fill the resources available". - You are aware of performance improvements with indexing in the 5.1.20 pre-release? - You can move content to skinny

Have you tried the 5.1.20 prerelease ? It's supposed to have indexing optimizations that will allow larger TW files. If so, it will be a real game changer. Good luck On Friday, July 5, 2019 at 8:00:00 PM UTC-7, h0p3 wrote: > > What does the future hold for large Tiddlywikis? What can I do
