I did some quick straces with karmic's 1.6.0-1ubuntu2 vs. 1.6.1 and unstable 1.7.2 from the web site.
$ grep -c fdatasync *.txt 1.6.0-1ubuntu2.txt:1264 1.6.1.txt:1004 1.7.2.txt:996 $ grep -c fsync *.txt 1.6.0-1ubuntu2.txt:4 1.6.1.txt:3 1.7.2.txt:0 There is a slight downward trend, but most of the change is probably due to differing default feeds starting with 1.6.1. So apparently not much has changed just yet. Emilio mentioned that performance fixes will come with 1.8 anyway. -- Liferea stalling, uses excessive number of fsyncs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290666 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
