Upgrade StorageSlow Performance in Zotero on Laptop Despite Identical Setup
Hello Zotero Community,
I hope you can help me troubleshoot an issue I'm experiencing with Zotero on my laptop. I've been using Zotero seamlessly on my desktop at the office, but I've encountered some performance issues when using it on my laptop.
Details of the Issue:
Environment: I am using Zotero on both my desktop and laptop with the same Zotero account, and the content is identical on both devices.
Symptoms: On my laptop, sometimes when I open a collection, it takes almost a minute for all the items within that collection to appear.

Expected Behavior: Ideally, the performance should be similar to that on my desktop, where collections load quickly without any noticeable delay.
I've tried to replicate the issue on my desktop, but it doesn't occur there, which leads me to believe that the problem is specific to my laptop setup. I've checked for updates, ensured that both devices are running the same version of Zotero, and confirmed that the sync settings are correctly configured.

Otherwise, can you provide a Debug ID for Zotero startup through reproducing this, using the "Restart with Logging Enabled…" option?
I suspect that Zotero automatically reads the latest content from Feeds. Is there any way to disable this automatic reading?
You have tens of thousands of items among all your libraries. If you're using an SSD on one computer and something other than an SSD elsewhere, that's likely the difference.
This issue has been troubling me for a long time, thank you for helping me solve it, many many thanks!
