Honest question. How many !KDE people use Quicksand and prefer it?
-
@skreech2 I might have liked it, but I don't like that weird, out-of-place menu that pops-up on the right. :/
-
@zuargo everyone using KDE 4?
-
@djotaku I know about many people who have disabled them, both nepo. and stri. uses too much resources (ram and CPU)
-
@skreech2: I use it and prefer it.
-
@zuargo: I do, but very little.
-
@zuargo Hopefully it continues to improve with each generation. In KDE 4.6 it never causes problems. Unlike 4.5. Also there's a slider.
-
@djotaku yesterday, I had enabled them, the system was using, 2.04 GB of ram, (I have 4GB)
-
@zuargo Not to invalidate your concerns - did you experience any slowdown or swapping because of that? 2GB doesn't matter if you're on net
-
@djotaku In other words, I find our machines are over-provisioned for most daily tasks. Unless video editing or using Blender
-
@djotaku you are right, I didn't have any slowdown related to ram but, also, the CPU increases their use, so the system becomes very slow...
-
@djotaku at least for me...
-
@djotaku I think this increase of CPU use was due to that strigi was indexing all files in the hard disk
-
@zuargo yeah, and if that's written well (Don't know whether it is or not) it should take << resources as there are less files new to it
-
@djotaku perhaps. I will try, again, soon, but when I buy more ram memory :P
-
@zuargo Haha. I have 6 GB and the cpu/disk still thrash for a while on first boot - probably nepomuk. It calms as soon as I start real work
-
@djotaku thank you by sharing your experience :)
-
@zuargo I use it, for me it's something *very* important ...
-
@zuargo Working flawlessly here, no R.A.M and/or cpu abuses (33k files in index) ... but, virtuoso is always eating 10% of CPU use it or not
-
@skreech2 Which release did it start working in? Most people are not on master ;)
-
@thomaszander Quicksand has been basically working since it came out. I'm not sure it meets the goals of the project but certainly usable
-
@leorockway ¿y entiendes cómo funciona? xD
-
@vertexsymphony the index, made for my system, by Nepomuk has 5,3 GB :P. Also, first time I hear about virtuoso
-
@zuargo: busco el contenido de un archivo usando QuickSand.
