Between minutes and (very few) hours. I won't be awake anymore by the 
time it happens but once the website updates it's live. The 
announcements will have to wait until tomorrow.

Re: Poor performance with profile on SD card

Yes, and that is why it works on your XP and Win-7 PCs, the file path
is the same.
Does your Tablet have the following directory structure and naming
convention?
D:\Mozilla\SM-2 Profiles


Yes, the directory structure on the tablet is exactly the same as on my
XP and Win7 machines. The only differences are that the tablet is
running Windows 8, and the D drive is on the SD card.


The above may be part of the problem. SD cards are pretty much the
same until we
compare memory size, and Class values.

Class values use a value that relates to write and read speed for the
memory chip.
I have a digital camera with a 2Gb SD card with no Class value on the
car. It
was very slow in writing RAW files to the card. I purchased a new SD
card with
16Gb and a Class-10 value. Now the write speed of a RAW file is as
fast as
writing a .jpg image file.

The file size difference between a RAW and .jpg file is about 8Mb, the
point I
discovered is in the Class value, 10 is about 10 times faster.

You may want to look into this as a possible solution, SDHC cards are
relatively
inexpensive now, the 16Gb card I purchased was on sale for $19.95 at
our local
Target Store. So. CA, Ventura area, USA.


My 32GB card is supposedly a class 10 card. I think I paid about $40 for
it, which is not a negligible amount of money.



David,

The only conclusion I can come up with after reading your two comments 
is the path name is not the dame on your tablet.


You say the D\ drive is on the SD card, that is not the same path as D:\
Your path name may be something like: F:\D:\  Where F: is the name of 
your SD card (Kingston)


Aside from that it may be a Windows 8 thing, I don't know for sure.

Only way I can think to do it would be to custom build a sidebar with 
just the content you want.  See if anything here helps.

I'm certainly no expert but suspect that disk speed may be a major issue.
SeaMonkeys cache is in the profile along with cookies, history, bookmarks and
all the other sqlite databases so it's going to be reading and writing it
frequently. The advertized write speed for that card is 20MB/s and that is
probably for sequential writes of the optimal size so you are probably not
getting anything close to that. At best it will be 5 times slower than you SDD
and may be considerably more than that. Also running a release preview the
drivers may not be fully optimized yet. I suggest downloading CrystalDiskMark
(if it will run on Windows 8) and run it on the SD card and the SDD drive and
compare the random read and write speeds. You could also try moving the cache
back to the SDD drive to see if that makes a
difference(Preferences-Advanced-Cache-Cache Folder Location)


Jim (and Rufus):

Thanks for the advice. I'm travelling this week, but I will check out 
CrystalDiskMark when I get home.


I did try moving the cache back onto the C drive, but it did not seem to make 
much difference.

Multiple Users - Need to Reboot

[David Harrington]

I am using Seamonkey 2.9 under Win 7 Home Premium. There are 5 accounts 
operating on the same machine.


In any session, the first account to access Seamonkey gets full use of 
the program. Subsequent users are unable to access Seamonkey until the 
machine is rebooted.


Logging out of the first account before logging in to the next doesn't 
change this. Nothing except a full re-boot gives anyone else access to 
SeaMonkey.


Any ideas on how this might be corrected?
