Pocket PC Forum / End Users / Pocket PC / October 2006slow Qusnetsoft reader
I just updated my ROM (Axim X51v WM5) to A12 and reinstalled my software. Everything works great BUT Qusnetsoft reader is now incredibly slow. As I never timed it before I can only estimate but I'd start the sync before having my shower and it was always done by the time I got back to the computer. Now it takes at least twice that long and I don't think I'd be far off if I guessed more like three times that long. It's also terribly slow when I go from the group listing to opening one of the groups to start reading...I'd guess about ninety seconds minimum to load a group with fifty or sixty messages in it. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a newer version I need to get? If I'm stuck with this, I think I'll make the move to QMail but I've forgotten the trick to get it from an English site...help, anyone? Thanks, Tim Hello Tim, I too have problems with Qusnet NewsReader, and it may be similar to yours. i am presently composing an email to the software developer. Yours is an interesting addition to the collection of problems people are reporting with this NNTP / RSS newsreader. TM> I just updated my ROM (Axim X51v WM5) to A12 and reinstalled my TM> software.

So slow that the beachball icon seems to rotate forever, and everything else grinds to a halt. I have been soft-resetting the Ax when this happens thinking that the program has hung, but you are now suggesting that it is slow and not hung ...

Don't know how many newsgroups you have but that would be too long for me. I have maybe 6 newsgroups and I expect that it should take maybe a couple of minutes tops -- over wireless. BTW -- what encoding are you using? Did you leave it at the default Cyrillic (ROI8-R)?

TM> If I'm stuck with this, I think I'll make the move to QMail Isn't QMail an SMTP (email) reader not NNTP or Usenet reader? Regards, Wayne Mose Thanks for the note, Wayne. I also am using the most recent Qusnetsoft--3.3--but since my post have found the url for Qmail and have installed it. It, Qmail, is a pop mail program but also does NNTP quite nicely. As it's not perfect I'm still interested in whether or not Qusnetsoft will improve over time or fade away. > Hello Tim, > [quoted text clipped - 41 lines] > Regards, > Wayne Moses Having just heard that there was an update to Quesnetsoft in August, I've gone to the site and gotten 3.3.11, replacing my 3.3 10 and everything is back to normal so if anyone else is experiencing a serious slowdown, you might want to check out the more recent build. > Thanks for the note, Wayne.

Glad to hear that for you Tim. I am still having the occasional "so slow it might as well have hung" issue I always had. I have no idea what is wrong. I am also running 3.3.0.11. I think it is marginally different now that I installed it from the CAB file this last time. I am just finishing uip the email to the developer. Regards, Wayne Mose >I am just finishing uip the email to the developer. Let us know if he responds Wayne. Have you e-mailed him before?

No, but I did send a test message before spending a whole bunch of time composing the real one, and he responded saying that he's ready to receive. I did get a 'message read' confirmation this morning, so I know he got it. Regards, Wayne Mose well.. i'm here and i acessible. you can email me anytime to support(at)qusnetsoft.ru. i answered to _every_ emails i received to support. if you don't receive my response check your spam filters. about problems. latest qnr relese 3.3.0.11 works fine on more than 1000 devices (as i see in registration records). yes, some peoples have problems with database speed and with connection, especially with ssl sources. but after analize these problems most ot it was resolved. common recomendation: pack database periodically. database grows every sync operation and one time can radically slow down your system. don't store more than 300 articles per group. you can to limit size in settings. keep your storage card clean. any file system problems can crash database. i recommend check your card periodically by chkdsk using card reader. use so fast connection as you can. qnr allows read and write offline, so you can use it feature. don't reboot your device during synch. if you have problem with connection - check your newsgroup acessibility; check your speed enough (some providers rejects slow connection); check your device network connection status; check your group authentification settings; check codepage and transfer-encoding compatible with your server (most servers works with defaults, but for some you need to set for example Western European codepage and base64 transfer-encoding. about installation. qnr makes record in brogram files folder, database foler and registry. standard uninstall must clear all but database. in registry only one key created - HKCU\Software\NewsReader2004. and at last. some peoples reports that sometimes just full uninstall and next installation resolved problems. but i can't explain this phenomen :) bye dmitry g. qusnetsov WM> Hello Pegleg, P>> On Mon, 09 Oct 2006 04:11:51 GMT, Wayne Moses <wmoses@houston.rr. com> P>> wrote: >>> I am just finishing uip the email to the developer.
