My favorite solution of the day is now this patch for 1.4.26-0ubuntu1 that adds an environment variable for the sqlite3 sync behaviour. Possible values are 0..3, with 0 for no sync. See http://www.sqlite.org/pragma.html#pragma_synchronous. Basically running liferea like this disables syncing:
LIFEREA_SYNCHRONOUS=0 liferea ** Attachment added: "pragma_synchronous" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27995512/pragma_synchronous -- Liferea stalling, uses excessive number of fsyncs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290666 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
