Hello:
I've found that Mendeley Desktop's search feature stalls frequently despite my having a powerful machine.
I'm not sure what causes this problem, but my guess is that a search is initiated immediately following each keystroke. This seems to be the case because when typing my search term, the characters I enter are stalled from displaying on the screen, starting with the second character I type.
If this is assessment is accurate, one solution would be to delay the initiation of the search for a number of milliseconds after a character has been entered so that a search is initiated not with each keystroke, but rather with the end of typing a given search term.
I apologize if my assessment of the problem is inaccurate---in which case, I would simply like to request that this issue is addressed by someone who does understand it.
Thank you,
Nick
