I also have lagging issues with Flare. I really do not think it is outside of Flare for the most part. Even when doing a simple rename of a topic it takes a long time for Flare to respond. Even when task manager has zero to 5 percent processor usage and the memory is fine, Flare still takes a long t...

I don't think there is any way to avoid this. It's a total pain in the rear end, isn't it! To get over the problem I have a whole series of search-and-replace scripts in FAR HTML that do all sorts of things to the imported HTMLs to clean them up before doing anything else. Join ul lists, because at...
