Mobileorg for Android: slow sync

Mobileorg for Android: slow sync

[Jordi Inglada]

Hi all,

I am learning to use Mobileorg for Android these days. I find the
application extremely useful.

I am using Dropbox as a staging area and everything works
(push/pull). However, I have an annoying behavior: the synchronization
is *very* slow (up to several hours!).

I was wondering if this can be due to the size of the org files and
the number of nested outline levels. For example, my work.org file has
over 10,000 lines.

Does anybody have any similar experience about this?

Any guidelines on the way of splitting large files?

A way of not pushing all the agenda files to the staging area?

Thank you very much.

Jordi

Hi Jordi, we do seem to be having a slowness issue with the Dropbox API.
I'm working with the Dropbox developers to see what could be causing that.
I usually split large projects into their own files,  you can configure
which files get considered for the agenda by examining this section of the
org-mode manual for MobileOrg:

Hi Matthew,

In order to make sure that it was "Dropbox's fault", I tried to use
the sdcard option. It is indeed much faster and perfectly useable like
this for my needs.

Thank you very much for this great application!
