Mendeley Reference Manager sync - very slow and crashes
I recently migrated from Mendeley Desktop to Mendeley Reference Manager (2.73.0), on Mac OS (Monterey 12.0). I have a very large library (>10k docs).
The new version (reference manager) is much slower than Desktop when syncing (which it does every time I open the app). When I open Mendeley RM it does an autosync, even when nothing has been changed since the last session. And the sync can take several minutes and sometimes I need to restart the app. The consequence is that when I open Mendeley I often have to wait 5 minutes before I can read anything.
Mendeley's chat support doesn't even acknowledge that this is a problem, or a change from the older version (Desktop).
Anyone else experienced this?

I have a few other zotero questions but I'll ask them in a separate thread.
