Title:
Moving many emails between folders causes Thunderbird to use massive
amounts of memory
Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I tried to move many emails (thousands) from one folder to another.
This caused Thunderbird to use massive amounts of memory (my system
has 4GB, and nearly all was allocated to Thunderbird, with swap space
well on the way to being full). Thunderbird froze. Subsequently,
Thunderbird brought up the a script on this page has stopped working
dialog. Even moving about a hundred emails at once causes large and
noticeable memory use.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1039837] Re: Moving many emails between folders causes Thunderbird to use massive amounts of memory
I use thunderbird from thunderbird-next ppa (currently
15.0~b4+build1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1~mtn1) and I observe the same behaviour.
When deleting messages (my daily dose, about a hundred), ie. moving them
to trash folder, the memory consumption is 1.7GB on 4GB machine. I use
IMAPs for my mail accounts.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1039837] Re: Moving many emails between folders causes Thunderbird to use massive amounts of memory
The problem seems to be related to the global message index. When global
indexing is disabled, the memory consumption stays in reasonable
boundaries. I removed the global message index (global-messages-
db.sqlite) and will see if it helps.
