Upgrade StorageFrequent Zotero synchronising interfering with work
Report ID: 498597891
The problem I have is that, while syncing does work, while the sync is occurring, I can't edit or add new references. This is fine if syncing doesn't happen too often or is fast, I can just wait for a minute or so. However, syncing is happening every time I add a reference, with the result that I can't work quickly because I'm constantly waiting for the synch to finish. It seems there may be a design issue here in that large libraries take ages to complete, especially considering that the zotero.sqlite file becomes very bloated?
Perhaps allow us to set an interval or times of the day for syncs to occur? That way, we can work off the local hard drive version, and then, at the time of the sync, do other things.

When syncing is working properly and you're not getting repeated errors, it shouldn't interfere with your work. Let us know if you continue to have problems with the latest version.
