Thank you. I'll try your suggestions. I'm not very tech-savvy, but hey, you gotta start somewhere :)

Also for additional

Also for additional information, to decrease IO writes....

1. run

gfix -user SYSDBA -password masterkey "you database path" -write async

2. modify with notepad firebird.conf file in Feedreader30 directory,
clear current content and add

DefaultDbCachePages = 6000
SortMemBlockSize = 2097152
DeadlockTimeout = 20
LockMemSize = 307200
LockHashSlots = 130
MaxUnflushedWrites = 500
MaxUnflushedWriteTime = 25

After you save file, set firebird.conf as read-only file, Feedreader sometimes checks firebird.conf content and rewrites.

Greetings, first I recommend

Greetings,

first I recommend to use "Feedreader backup utility" and choose all options, full backup restore is done (recommended action at least one time in a month).

Then set manually update time to those feeds (for example 30 or 45 min), that are not so important.

If you are using smartfilters that are searching some words in body / title, then also add to this filter article age.

Download latest beta, from development blog where title is "Feedreader 3.x application performance."

If you computer has enough RAM, then choose from Feedreader Tools->Options
Advanced page, add additional performance.

Currently is in development Feedreader Personal Edition, that runs on MYSQL, different database backend and also much faster. But sadly thats not for free.

FeedReader slowing down computer

Rasmus — Tue, 04 Dec 2007 13:47:29 +0200

FeedReader has started slowing down my computer greatly. When running, new windows can take as much as 30 seconds to open, and it frequently doesn't answer for minutes, usually when updating feeds.

Is this because of my large number of feeds (250+), og is it possibly because of newer (larger) versions? What can be done?
