[Bug 822479] Re: Massive Evolution Mail memory leak
I'm not sure if this is directly related but I notice a massive memory link with writing email with HTML content, such as pasted content from a webpage. This also applies to images that are inserted, as these create HTML containers around the images, thus causing a leak. The leak is apparent when pressing backspace after HTML content has been inserted. Typing is fast and responsive, but backspace takes one to two seconds to complete. It's often faster to highlight and delete than to press backspace. This leak causes sending of messages to freeze the window, causing it to grey out. As a final note, I've found that including a signature and attempting to delete it will crash Evolution instantly, although this may be an unrelated bug.

On Ubuntu 12.04 this problem still persists. Leaving my machine running over night kills it, because evolution uses 12GB of memory! I would classify this bug high, since it makes evolution de facto unusable. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/822479 Title: Massive Evolution Mail memory leak To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/822479/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 822479] Re: Massive Evolution Mail memory leak
Malte, I know that it's an annoyance, but could you try the workaround I've used to get evolution back working? The memory leak is probably related to some obscure settings or something messed up during updates. I was affected by the problem on 11.04, but after cleaning up the configuration files I was no more affected by this memory leak. Since that time I've also upgraded to 11.10 and then to 12.04 without issues related to evolution. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/822479 Title: Massive Evolution Mail memory leak To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/822479/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 822479] Re: Massive Evolution Mail memory leak
Some addition to the bug scenario: I've fresh installed ubuntu 11.04 on a new laptop, then I backed up all my evolution data from the old laptop and imported the backup onto the new one. After that operation evolution on the new laptop started to eat up ram in horrible way, taking around 100MB of memory for each message opened, and never freeing memory. So I've cleaned the configuration files of evolution and the locally downloaded mails. After this step evolution seems to does not eat up memory by simply opening messages. Before the operation it was leaking about 100MB of memory for each message opened. The removed files to clean up config and downloaded messages are ~/.evolution ~/.local/share/evolution ~/.config/evolution The memory leak could be related to the big quantity of locally stored messages (around 2Gb), or with a setting coming from the old setup that triggered a bug in evolution. Is there a way to test whatever setting caused the issue? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/822479 Title: Massive Evolution Mail memory leak To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/822479/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 822479] Re: Massive Evolution Mail memory leak
I confirm, the beheaviour. With a fresh installed 11.04 ubuntu and unity evolution is taking more and more ram as messages are loaded. I can clearly see the increase of memory usage when I read a mail or change tabs around in the application. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/822479 Title: Massive Evolution Mail memory leak To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/822479/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Yeah, I've switched to thunderbird 5. Works beautifully, and my netbook is fast again. Pity about Evolution. Is this likely to be fixed anytime soon?
