Bug ID: 486773
Summary: KMail hogs 1 cpu core trying to display a message
Classification: Applications
Product: kmail2
Version: 5.22.3
Platform: Debian testing
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED

Bzip'ed mail causing 100% cpu usage on 1 core.
SUMMARY
A friend of mine sent me a mail because he needed help writing a shell script.
Just displaying his mail in the
message viewer part or message viewer window takes 1 cpu core (100% cpu usage
on that core). Changing
the view to another mail makes the cpu usage go back to normal.
What I found strange is that even though I've often received mails from gmail
(since he's at gmail), I've never
faced such a behavior. I suspect it comes from how the mail is formatted. Maybe
its size (12MB !) but not sure.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the mail in kmail
2. Look at the CPU usage
OBSERVED RESULT
Usage of one of the CPU core is at 100% by kmail.
EXPECTED RESULT
CPU usage should not be at 100% when displaying a mail :)
