I suspect that it just hung evolution. Actually, I don't think it hung. A few days ago I tried doing something with the contact list that you get when you hit the To: button, for example, and I noticed that Evolution was _really_ slow bringing up the dialog, and it consumed a lot of CPU during that time. I was only looking at about 50 addresses. I didn't spend much time tracking it down either, so I may be way off anyway.
