Stuck on the beta...
I'm running 5.0.97-beta.18+1eb888d02, and it is basically useless.188BET靠谱吗When I open it, it works for maybe a minute, but as soon as Zotero starts using more than 2 GB of RAM or so, there's nothing that can be done anymore.I can also not sync from other computers anymore - presumably because the sqlite my main computer is in the new file format.
I did not make a copy of my previous sqlite.I also don't remember being advised to.188BET靠谱吗And Zotero itself seemingly also didn't make an automatic backup (as I would have expected it to).188BET靠谱吗Mo own last zotero.sqlite.bak dates from about a year ago, and misses a lot of items we have added since then.
So if anybody has any idea about how I can get back 'into business', I'd be very grateful!Will the release of 5.1 still last days/weeks/months?Is there anything I can do already now?Can I do something to help debug?
Thanks!

2) If you were using syncing, you can restore from any backup or no backup and simply sync to pull down all remaining data.
188BET靠谱吗3) If you're having trouble with the beta, we'd like your help investigating that, since no one else has reported anything like this, and unless you're experiencing something specific to the PDF reader or new note editor it shouldn't really be acting any differently from the current release version of Zotero.If you disable the PDF reader from the General pane of the preferences, it should be indistinguishable from 5.0.96.2.
Can you say more about what the actual problem is?188BET靠谱吗Are you saying Zotero uses more than 2 GB after a minute of being open, without your doing anything?Does this happen with all extensions disabled?188BET靠谱吗Can we see a Debug ID for Zotero startup through this happening?
Also, it's worth reminding us (and bearing in mind) how extreme your situation is when posting here about a performance issues.188BET靠谱吗You're likely in more groups than any other Zotero user and have over 600,000 items.It's possible there are some undiscovered performance regressions in the beta, but you might have also just added even more items since when you were last on the release version.
金博宝世界杯体育赛事We have an open ticket to allow removing groups from a given local install, and it seems like that would be useful in your case to keep the database size manageable on a given computer at a given time.
I updated on my main machine shortly after the beta came out (I have an upgrade log from March 13 in the data folder, which sounds about right) and I currently only have .bak and .1.bak, both from this week.
I don't run any cleaning tools and only Window's built-in security, and obviously I never muck around manually in the data folder, so I'm fairly certain this never existed.Happy to send the upgrade log if that's helpful.
(To be clear, I'm not having any of the above problems, and no need to get off the beta branch, I was just curious about the automatic .bak)
UPD - I submitted a Debug ID early on after rebooting (while I still could) and it's D2105253048.Will keep trying with different settings.
UPD2 - I disabled all add-ons, and now it seems to keep working.Here are the Debug IDs (all from the same runs, with the first ones first - D1376789218!D1923403473!D97104933, D878328403, D182165189.So the last, most recent one, is the one to look at I guess.I'll let it run now, and will still submit one after it has completed loading all libraries
UPD3 - it still got stuck.
Not sure whether this helps you, but there is alsothis.Note the 2.7 GB of RAM and the 'very high' power usage...
My sqlite file is 3.5 GB and is on a drive that has 121 GB free now.I also very much doubt it would have had that little space when I switched to the beta to try out the pdf annotation too. If there is anything you'd like me to do to help in troubleshooting this, please let me know.
But regardless, @sdspieg188BET靠谱吗, if you're missing a zotero.sqlite.bak and have a .1.bak from 2020, then automatic backups aren't working at all for you.We could debug that, but I'm not sure automatic backups should even be taken for databases greater than 500 MB or so…
I'll look at the Debug IDs for the performance issues.Again, there shouldn't be any difference in this regard between the release and beta versions, so if there is we'll want to fix that. See Changes Not Syncingfor that.
