I have seen slowdowns as well. You can speed up start time by disabling unused plug-ins as Evo spends a lot of time in the linker when starting. As for the rest of the slowdowns, please report them using GNOME Bugzilla. My research indicates that there is nothing FreeBSD-specific to this problem.

Startup takes between 30 and 40 seconds, during with the "evolution" process consumes 100% of one of the cores of the dual-core processor. After startup, various actions (including right-clicking on attachments) take approximately 10 seconds to complete the first time the action is done, this time with the "evolution-data-server" process consuming 100% of one core. Running ktrace against the evolution process during startup shows large amounts of apparently random information, but I don't have a pre-7 system to compare it to. I use SCHED_ULE and have had no other noticeable system slowdowns. All ports have been built from source with no extra settings in /etc/make.conf. $ cat /var/db/ports/evolution/options # This file is auto-generated by 'make config'. # No user-servicable parts inside! # Options for evolution-2.12.1_3 _OPTIONS_READ=evolution-2.12.1_3 WITHOUT_PILOT=true WITHOUT_LDAP=true WITHOUT_SPAMASSASSIN=true ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

As such, I don't know the answer to your question, but if you > tell me how to check I'll get back to you :) Since RELENG_7s GENERIC still comes with SCHED_4BSD I assume that you still have the old one. To be sure you can verify this by: % sysctl kern.sched.name In your case it should be: kern.sched.name: 4BSD To switch to the new you have to build a new kernel. Pretty good described here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html Just be sure to replace options SCHED_4BSD # 4BSD scheduler With options SCHED_ULE # ULE scheduler In my case it resolved some mouse and audio problems under X.Org. Don't know if evolution is affected, too, but you can give it a chance anyway. -- Oliver PETER, eMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED], ICQ# 113969174 "Worker bees can leave. Even drones can fly away.

evolution slow on 7.0
Hi folks, first, I know the subject line is a goldmine for jokes, but I couldn't think of a better way to phrase it. Ever since I moved to FreeBSD 7.0, the evolution mail client has become ridiculously slow for me. It takes two or three minutes to start up, right clicking on a folder takes several minutes to display a context menu etc My install process was as follows: 1. backup my home directory from a FreeBSD 6.2 install 2. Format the hard drive 3. Install 7.0 beta 1.5 4. csup sources and install beta 2.0 5. pkg_add xorg, gnome etc -- evolution was slow as a dog from this 6. portsnap fetch extract 7. follow the instructions in UPDATING for updating gnome I tried cd /usr/ports/mail/evolution && make deinstall && make reinstall, to see if something had simply gone wrong during the build, but nothing changed. Any ideas? James ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
