:rocket: Nexus AI Chat Importer v1.0.8 - Critical Performance Fix Released!

Important update for users with large conversation collections:

If you’ve imported 1000+ conversations and noticed Obsidian becoming painfully slow to start up, please update to v1.0.8 immediately. This version fixes a critical performance issue that was causing 30+ second startup times.

What’s fixed:

  • Eliminated file scanning that slowed down Obsidian startup
  • Much faster navigation between notes
  • Better memory usage
  • Optimized for large conversation collections (tested with 4000+ conversations)

How to update:
Go to Settings → Community plugins → Browse → Search for “Nexus AI Chat Importer” → Update

The plugin now handles thousands of imported conversations without any performance impact on Obsidian.

There is still a major performance issue while opening Obsidian when the catalog contains a large amount of entries.

I’m actively working on fixing this. Please stay posted. release 1.1.0 will be released in the next hours. And it will bring huge new feature :wink:
