[kmail] [Bug 183348] Kmail filter extremely slow
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=183348 --- Comment #11 from Tim Holy --- Just a follow-up: I tried it again, and after selecting 33K emails and starting filtering, I switched to a different mail directory (one with very few emails in it) for display. This did *not* appear to help anything. But because I was watching it carefully I noticed more detail this time. The filtering was stuck on "Mail Filter Agent...0%" for several (10ish?) minutes, with `mysqld`, `akonadiserver`, `akonadi_maildir_resource`, and `kontact` being among the main processes. None of them were using a lot of CPU, this seems to be a disk-bound process. Then, after no visible sign of progress for many minutes, all of a sudden it ran through all 33K messages in fewer than 10 seconds. So I'd guess the main filtering is plenty fast. It seems to be some "preparatory" step that is really slow, and because it gives no visible sign of progress it's a likely source of complaints/trouble for users (I was pretty close to trying to cancel/reboot my laptop by the time it started making progress). Should this bug be changed from RESOLVED to something else? Or should I file this observation as a separate bug report? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=183348 Tim Holy changed: What|Removed |Added CC||h...@pcg.wustl.edu --- Comment #10 from Tim Holy --- I'm using Kubuntu 16.04 (Kontact 5.1.3). I copied several hundred thousand emails over from an older install. I realized I had made a mistake in ordering the priority of my filters, so I modified them and then selected a folder with about 33K messages in it, selected all messages, and hit Ctrl-J. The progress was extremely slow, under 10 messages per second, running at least 2 threads (one kontact and one mysql) constantly. Note that, because this is a new installation, I have only 6 filters defined so far (in contrast to my hundreds of filters in my old installation), and the filter rules are extremely simple (all single-rule, most looking at List-Id). While preparing to comment here, I went and selected Help>Kontact Introduction to get my version number. When I came back to the folder, the filtering had stopped. I'm not certain whether it finished or terminated. If it finished, then I have a theory: display of folder contents is interfering with progress in filtering. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs

KMail2 was released in 2011, and the entire code base went through significant changes. We are currently in the process of porting to Qt5 and KF5. It is unlikely that these bugs are still valid in KMail2. We welcome you to try out KMail 2 with the KDE 4.14 release and give your feedback. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs
