TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
My whole team experiences this. It is a real pain. And yes, we too often have to reboot. Working remote is even worse. When I get too fed up, I revert back to Flare 6 (since 7 had some problems that made it untenable), and this is frustrating since I really like Flare 8's ribbon menu and table editing functionality.

Subject: Flare 8 slows everything down?
I have a client using Flare and they recently upgraded to Flare version
8 from Flare 7. Flare 8 loads slower for them and then after running a while it slows everything down on the machine, so much so that they reboot and open Flare 7, which runs much faster. Flare support says this is a bug and if it's fixed in a patch they'll let them know.
Anyone experience this and have any words of wisdom? Our current fix is "use Flare 7."
Thanks,
Mark
