I think its not neccesary to say how enthusiasm I felt with CintaNotes although I've got already 10 years of using of a tree-like software in heavy-duty but with no tags feature.
So after some doubts I decided to use it replacing hundreds "text databases" of my "old" software. But something strange stopped me so I need your professional answer :
First of all I am very suspicious and against every saving to the cloud. Thats why I immediately rejected EverNote. I only choose absolutely local use software for such tasks with absolutely no internet connection.
Cinta Notes has some features that I thought I can avoid them (backups ..) so
1st :
I made all the following changes to Cinta settings :
autoupdate.checkperiod.min = 0
autoupdate.startafter.min = 0
backup.checkperiod.minutes = 0
backup.daily.enabled = 0
backup.hourly.enabled = 0
backup.weekly.enabled = 0
(having in my mind that the zero value represents as usual the OFF state)
(I prefer my own manual cyclic backup policy in absolutely mine responsibility)
and
2nd :
I create a rule to my firewall to block every connection both direction from CintaNotes to internet.
What I suddenly saw was a tremendous hard disk activity and running the software "Process Monitor" (Procmon.exe) I saw an unbelievable number of disk activity by Cinta Notes although I have create only one test note with the word "test" !!!!!!
I think hundreds of CPU actions are taking place every minute !! What's going on ??? !! I feel is killing my CPU with just one note !!
the following videos display clear how many days left for my CPU to be burnt from extremely high usage ....
