Lazy Loading and Performance of TW5

[balasubramanian Achuthan]

Hi All,

I have been using TW5 for some time now and i love it. I have decided to use TW5. i am moving all my notes in various format (.md, .txt) to TW5. Till yesterday, i had imported around 100+ tiddlers. I came across an article on inserting "external Images", and it was suggested not to copy paste the images directly into a tiddler, as it may have performance impact. Recommended approach was to use "_canonical_uri' to import the images.

The problem i have is, i have large collection of text as well as graphical snippets from web and other sources for my Masters. So saving each and every image to a directory and then importing to TW5 may take lot of time. So i was looking for some alternative. Can you guys please clarify? Currently i am using a single static HTML (TiddlyDesktop way) to store my Notes. In-fact i have lot of image snippets than text.

1. I was looking at articles on Lazy Loading images. (https://tiddlywiki.com/#LazyLoading). If i move to node.js way of storing tiddlers, and lazy load all the images (using base64encodedRawData in HTML) - am i improving the performance ?  Could not find more details on the wiki, so asking here.

2. I want to organize my TW5 Wiki as a note book for each Research Area and index it using a global TW5 Wiki

e.g.

NotesWiki (TW5)

  -- Maths

  -- Cryptography

  -- Data Privacy

  -- Security

If there is way for TW5 to export tags and links using a Query like e.g. Maths.html#Content (where content could be a top level tag / tiddler), i can call this from NotesWiki to display the list with a link. Do we have such mechanism ?

Thanks,

Bala.

Hello Bala,

I'm using tiddlywiki with the node setup and lazy loading of images. It works well because you don't download the images until the moment you need to display them. That increases a lot the performance if you have many images.

Regarding the other question I don't think I understand what you want to do
