[Bug 625793] Re: Keyboard layout automatically changes + 100% CPU usage [updated]

2010-10-03 Thread Vasil Kolev
I can confirm that disabling the g-s-d keyboard plug-in in gconf does resolve 
the issue for me, but it kills the per-window keyboard layout feature. The 
other workaround didn't help.
(I'm using english and bulgarian phonetic layouts)

[Bug 292739] Re: Evolution 2.24.1 really slow with big IMAP folders

2009-01-26 Thread Vasil Kolev
Fabio,

Changing the IO scheduler is easy - it's in
/sys/block/$devname/queue/scheduler ($devname = sda in my case), and
ubuntu comes with all the normal in-kernel schedulers compiled in -
deadline, anticipatory, noop and cfq (the last one being the default
one).

I'll try this with the other schedulers and will see if that makes any
difference. BTW, can you post some links to the discussions about the
block scheduler performance, they might be useful to this bug too.

I don't think that SQLite is the problem, as when I preload it it's
blindingly fast - and when you have a single account, it's again really
fast. If someone can test evolution with postgresql or mysql, I think
we'll see the same results (without the preloading).

[Bug 292739] Re: Evolution 2.24.1 really slow with big IMAP folders

2009-01-25 Thread Vasil Kolev
Okay, I finally used my head for a while, and found a work-around for this 
problem. In short,
cat ~/evolution/mai/imap/*/folders.db  /dev/null
before starting evolution seems to make it load at least as fast as the 
versions before sqlite.

Now, this seems to be an issue either with the block device scheduler, sqlite 
or both. It's visible that when you have two tasks that do a lot of disk IO 
(firefox tends to do that when first reading the location bar cache, or 
updatedb, or dpkg), then the whole system grinds down to a halt. Evolution does 
the same just by itself, by doing a lot of small reads on two files in parallel 
and most drives don't really like that.
(I might try testing this on a RAID1 array of faster drives, if that could be 
useful)

For the record, I'm using standard intrepid + proposed.

Using the version from proposed, it's definitely a bit better, but still
with two reasonably big IMAP accounts my drive grinds for a few minutes
until everything is updated. It's still worse than with hardy, but
somewhat livable.

Fabio, do you use filters in Evolution to sort the email? I found out
that if I disable filtering on the INBOX (while still having two IMAP
accounts) it's definitely better. Seems like it's filtering the whole
INBOX (there are about 3k messages there) instead of just the new stuff.

I tried the trick with creating indexes and for me evolution now is even
faster than the previous version. I'm using it on reiserfs, a normal
intrepid upgrade on x86_64.
