My guess is that this is related to the log history option, which I've now disabled. I'm fairly certain this is what was causing my performance problems. 2.8MB flat text ICS files as event databases would surely cause a similar delay to what I was experiencing. I do think this is a valid bug, of the doesn't scale variety. IMHO, history should be logged to another file, and/or in another format. -- Lee Braiden -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

The only possible reasons I can think of for this affecting me and not others are: * I tend to reset times at the end of each day, or each morning, and delete all items, at the start of each new day. * I use this for around 8-15 tasks each day * I use hierarchies, adding and deleting items under items which I use as headings. I only use these 1-level deep though (usually) and the same delays seem to be present on the top level tasks. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages karm depends on: ii kdelibs4c2a 4:3.5.6.r1.dfsg.1-4 core libraries and binaries for al ii libacl1 2.2.42-1Access control list shared library ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.19-3Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libattr1 1:2.4.32-1.1Extended attribute shared library ii libaudio21.9-1 The Network Audio System (NAS).
