Aggrevator is an RSS/Atom aggregator that uses a MySQL 4.1 database for storage. The main advantage of Aggrevator is that it is scalable. It has been tested successfully with 4000 simultaneous feeds from a variety of sources. Once your database is set up, you can connect to it from any running instance of Aggrevator (with a valid username and password), so you no longer have to manually synchronize different installations of the same aggregator.
Recent releases


Release Notes: A related entries feature that links entries to Technorati was added. Lazy loading support was added to the configuration.properties so that the content of entries can either be loaded for all entries when the user selects a feed or only when the user selects a particular entry. Support was added for the user to specify proxy host and port in the configuration.properties file. The program has reverted to using the ProxoolConnectionPool due to performance issues with the C3P0ConnectionPool.


Release Notes: The 0.6.5 release was broken on Linux. This release fixes it so that users can once again start Aggrevator on Linux. C3P0ConnectionPool was plugged in as a replacement for Proxool. The caching code was improved so that the cache doesn't become corrupted as often.


Release Notes: Searches can be restricted by the titles of the feed or entries. The command keys were changed to use Ctrl-Shift+ F/E/B to switch between the FeedView/EntryView/BrowserView. The current entry or the current location can now be opened in the user's default Web browser. It's now possible to create Feedster search feeds. A cache file was added, which should improve start-up times for users with a large number of entries.
