This is an informational note for new tiddlywiki users who are customizing, using lots of plugins / creating lots of content: if your wiki is lagging, and you need a speed boost, disable the tiddler "sidebarTabs"!!
You can disable it by modifying the tiddler "pageTemplate" and deleting this line: <div id='sidebarTabs' refresh='content' force='true' tiddler='SideBarTabs'></div> However, that solution may not work for some people, because you still want to access the stuff in those tabs sometimes. An alternative solution is to install Mr. Shulman's NestedSlidersPlugin (http:// www.tiddlytools.com/#NestedSlidersPlugin). Then, in "sidebarTabs" you can replace the default content with the following: +++... Navigation <<tabs txtMainTab "Timeline" "Timeline" TabTimeline "All" "All tiddlers" TabAll "Tags" "All tags" TabTags "More" "More lists" TabMore>> === the only change here is the +++... at the beginning and === at the end. The +++ and === invoke a slider. The three dots ... are what's important. They "defer" the loading of the slider's contents until you actually open it. So there's no impact on memory performance unless you open the slider. I had put my navigation tabs in a regular slider thinking it automatically did this deferring behavior, but my wiki kept getting slower and slower (20 plugins, about 1 meg file size), until it took 30 seconds to save a tiddler. Putting in the "..." takes this down to 2 seconds. This happens because the code in sidebarTabs, while useful, must run through every tiddler in your wiki every time you make a change. Just a detailed informational message. Trey -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
