Sync schedule options
While I love the ability to sync my Zotero collection between my multiple computers, the current options are less than ideal. I can either have Zotero sync automatically (in which case I, and others, have a very slow FF) or sync manually (in which case I often forget to have Zotero sync before moving between computers). Would it be possible to put in some sort of schedule for syncing, similar to that of anti-virus programs & whatnot? (E.g. sync every day, or every 4 hours, or maybe even some user-specified amount of time?)
I know it would be very useful for me. Thanks

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Instead of commenting here, you should start a new discussion. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
Perhaps there's something that can be done to move indexing to a separate thread (or something) to make Zotero more responsive when attaching files?
Dan: As I understood it, the stall was caused by the simultaneous combination of saving pdfs and syncing (possibly also indexing pdfs). If I'm not currently saving pdfs, then syncing only results in a relatively minor lag. If I turn off auto-sync, then saving (with indexing) pdfs causes a relatively brief stall. If I save pdfs while auto-sync is on, then Zotero & FF stall for a much longer amount of time (relative to the number of pdfs grabbed).
