Tab Reload Issue in Zotero with More Than Five Open Documents

Parkour

I've encountered a reloading issue in Zotero when switching between open literature tabs. With about five tabs open, I can switch quickly without noticeable reloads. However, when I open a sixth or more tabs, switching back to previously opened documents often results in reloading.

This occurs even with all plugins disabled and is consistent across multiple PDFs. I couldn't find any relevant settings in Zotero's advanced editor that might adjust this behavior, possibly related to cache capacity or tab limits.

Any suggestions or solutions would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Yes, it currently caches a maximum of five tabs in memory. We're planning some improvements to keep more active tabs in memory if possible while unloading tabs automatically after inactivity or if the system is low on available memory.
