I have an Acer Iconia W500 tablet on which I have installed Windows 8
Release Preview 32-bit (and previously the Developer Preview and

This machine has a 32GB SSD drive, and I have added a 32GB SD card in
the internal slot, formatted as NTFS (drive D). When I put my SeaMonkey
profile on this SD card, the performance is abysmal. *Everything* takes
a long time, especially just loading pages in the browser. This happens
both with my existing profile (copied from another machine) and a new
test profile. The original default profile on the SSD C drive works fine.
Has anybody else seen this? Can SeaMonkey be transferring so much data
to/from the profile that disk speed is a major issue?
BTW, the card is PNY 32GB Secure Digital High-Capacity (SDHC) Flash Card
Model P-SDHC32G10-EFS2 R.
David,
Long, long ago, before smart phones and tablets, or notebooks we were
able to install SM on the memory stick that would be used with the
mobile device (Acer Iconia W500 tablet).
Installing on the memory stick allowed SM to create a default profile on
the stick.
Some of the files on your desktop install of SM refer to locations on
your desktop, not found anywhere on your tablet.
Try installing SM on the memory stick for the tablet.

In addition to what Michael says you should also be aware that all SD
cards aren't created equal - differing IO speeds, etc., and the fact
that you are using a "secure" SD card could mean that it may be doing
things in the background that may also decrease it's effective speed -
i.e. - encrypt/decrypt. Check the specs for your SD card and see...you
may want to try a different one.
