[Help] Libra2 caching freezes with large libraries

lambstone · Today, 02:40 AM

I've installed KoReader on my upgraded storage 256gb Kobo Libra 2. Also I'm running project title.

Currently I have used 30gb for approximately 2500 epubs since I have quite a few Japanese light novels that are image heavy.

So I am experiencing a few issues right now which are annoying but doesn't really break the overall experience.
1) First off, its non-negotiable for me as I have a preference to keep my entire library on my device
2) With 2500 epubs, koreader tends to freeze when caching the book covers etc etc. For instance, my first run will freeze when caching epub #567, then I would have to force reboot and continue and this process repeats and freezes and then I have force reboot once more until all my books are cached.

So is it possible to perform this caching process on my PC or something? Failing that is there a way to optimize the cache to reduce the size of the cache?

1. It should be negotiable. Most Readers don't handle 2500 books all that well.

What you could do is put your library on Dropbox and get books from there are you want them.

They probably read here as well, but I'd suggest reporting it with ProjectTitle (and putting it in the title here, if you can still edit that).

I'm thinking that maybe the KOReader is running out of memory when caching that many eBooks.
