After using the fsync disabled versions from my PPA for over two years now on regular basis i finally managed to crash my database. As Adrian pointed out in Comment #65 unplugging the power cord is quite effective ;)
All in all i think it still is a good tradeoff for personal use to run without the recommended safety from upstream, but you BETTER RUN some BACKUPS and be AWARE of POWER LOSSES while UPDATING your feeds. I'm quite happy i could restore a week old backup. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290666 Title: Liferea stalling, uses excessive number of fsyncs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/liferea/+bug/290666/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
