MC very slow
« on: May 17, 2024, 02:56:02 am »

Hallo,

using Linux Mint. So, is there possibilities to push the performance of MC? It is really very slow.

In general, I can describe that every dialog that is called up or clicked on is extremely slow. If I want to search for something, I type a letter and then it takes 30 seconds until something happens and I can type the next letter. The same goes for the tag editor. You can't really work or use the software like this.

I am grateful for any tips.
Jochen

I use MC32 on Linux Mint 21.3 XFCE running (walking?) on an ancient (circa 2012 Pentium cpu, 4gb memory) system and it's responsiveness is fine.

If you are seeing such awful response times with your hardware, then something is very wrong. I would suggest creating a small test library using a few files on a local fast disk and turn off autoimport, if this is fine, then investigate what is causing the problem(s) in your main library.
