Thank you all for your responses. I do not have any tiddlers so large, but using Firefox ESR I have > experienced breakdowns when TiddlyWiki slows to the point of being > unresponsive.

So can you have a closer look at the plugins you use? > Did you make heavy changes to the View- or EditTemplates? > - Danielo's footNote add-on - Highlight.js plugin - A single filter in $:/core/macros/timeline - No changes to View and EditTemplates Which font did you embed and how? .... > How big are the font files? > Is the font embedded into the TW?

Search time is excellent. This is primarily an issue editing a large tiddler. Opening and saving the large tiddler has a bit of a pause, but typing in the editor has a ~3 second delay. That much delay makes takes me out of my writing flowstate.

For the record: E3 Xeon, 16GB RAM, 750Ti, Ubuntu 16.04, Firefox ESR, 10MB wiki. So, I grabbed Chromium, and I have zero performance problems on it. Damnit! The only reason I'm using ESR is because I love some of my extensions, including Tiddlyfox. I can't escape the Firefox Apocalypse. =( I guess I'll be moving to Quantum w/savetiddlers + syncing/linking the updated wiki file to the directory it belongs. Anyone have a sync or linking method that they love for this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
