Hi, can anyone help? Is there any way of stopping Lime from hashing files each time I start it up? Everything grinds to a halt and takes forever to complete the smallest task. The only solution I've found so far is to remove my shared files so that it has nothing to hash. I don't like doing that because its not fair on others, downloading but not sharing. Any suggestions?

Share less or be patient. I think it not only matters how many files but also the files' sizes. I find large files take that much longer.
