The way I installed debian caused the swapping via "compcache" to be disabled, which I remedied by now (see wiki page above). That helps with some problems with memory consumption, but doesn't really make things faster (I have a slow SD card, I think I will order a faster one soon). I didn't manage to get below 9 seconds for changing from one day to the next in the agenda, even though I moved out most of my reference material (and that way I have a more pure GTD-setup in my org-files now). > Thus I'll only be using the local emacs on my android phone as a > fallback when I have no (fast) network access, otherwise I'll use it > via ssh on a much faster host.

(speed commands > and tag selection keys are especially handy) ---Zitatende--- And so is this. I have a remote host on which I use emacs + org mostly =66rom the phone, so I have my @G1 and @Network context on that box and use speed commands, fast tag selection and context based auto exclusion to get the right context. So if I have to wait for a delayed train again, I can just pull up my shopping lists ;) The debian installation remains on my sd card, since it's nice to have the familiar tools with me in a pinch. I guess android based smartphones will be much faster a few years from now, if they still exist, and then maybe this setup will be more frequently used. --=20 Friedrich Delgado Friedrichs TauPan on Ircnet and Freenode ;) --xHFwDpU9dbj6ez1V Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAksagUEACgkQCTmCEtF2zEDZcQCff4UP61GJ9Q6bBKBFBvyeIO4X p7UAoMbIdYDn0+nLXNFmP9Xl5c3anApq =J0+Q -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --xHFwDpU9dbj6ez1V-- --===============1632561535== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
