Package: enigmail
Version: 2:1.7.2-3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Enigmail appears to call 'gpg --list-keys' when trying to work out if it
should encrypt an email, even if that mail has only one recipient. This means
slurping up every single key ID into memory, required or not. It also causes
gpg to walk its entire database, which is ridiculously inefficient - with a
large keyring and gpg2 this can take several minutes, during which time gpg
hogs 99% of CPU. (gpg1 is faster, but there is still a noticeable delay)
Is this all really necessary? It would be hundreds of times faster to call
'gpg --list-keys $email' for each recipient in turn.
Andrew.
