SM 1.1.15

Is anyone else having a similar problem:

you have something opened, like SM Mail. You click on compose, and you 
have to wait and wait and wait.  The task manager says the program is 
not responding.  After a minute, then the compose window opens and 
everything is back to normal, until you open something else.  You could 
open the browser, or bookmark manager, or whatever, and you just wait.


I've tracked mine down to hostperm.1.  If I close the program and remove 
it, then reopen and things work great again.


I've noticed the same problem with FF3.  When I click to open it, it 
would take a few minutes.  I could click on it again and a window would 
open. I would close that, and the original click would finally open.  I 
removed permissions.sqlite and things would be back to normal.


So, anyone else having any similar problems?



Thanks Peter! I had same problem occurring with increasing frequency. 
Ihave SM 1.1.15 :) on Windows Vista :( - Deleting hostperm.1 seems to 
fix that so far. I'm wandering if hostperm.1 file has some problem with 
Windows hosts.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who experienced this 
problem.


I tried it with and without the Hosts file and it made 
no difference. Still sluggish.

I haven't noticed any issues with hostperm.1.

I have found that the constant sqlite updating of so many files in FF 
causes a lot more issues than it's worth IMO.  I don't think most users 
need the repeated updating of the 6 files.


On one network I admin, all laptop users stopped using FF3 because the 
backup software wasn't configurable enough to exclude all the sqlite 
files, and the backup was constantly writing to the server and bogging 
down the performance.  So it was a double whammy, constant sqlite 
updating and constant backing up.  On another network, I was able to set 
up a FF profile in the backup software and exclude the sqlite files from 
updating constantly during the day, but have them backup once on shutdown.




Terry R.


so, from what you said, sqlite is the craps.

I hated it when FF took about 5 to 10 minutes to delete 
my SM bookmarks.




Yep.  I was told when I filed a bug that sqlite is much more reliable, 
and the bug was filed as WON'T FIX.


It was reliable for me the old way, because I know how to protect 
valuable data.  I don't need a program writing to disk all freakin day 
to keep my cookie info updated, nor my history or bookmarks.  What a 
waste of CPU cycles.
