[Bug 681183] Re: Thunderbird hangs and greys out for 10-20 seconds
Ubuntu has not shipped a btrfs package for a long time, moving to generic Ubuntu for triage. This bug is pretty old.

[Bug 681183] Re: Thunderbird hangs and greys out for 10-20 seconds
I tracked my problem down to really, *really* bad behaviour of SQLite databases on a btrfs file system. That, and updatedb for the locate program was taking may hours to scan my disk. Conseqeuently, very little of my disk was in RAM and performance was awful. Between tweaking updatedb's conf file, changing btrfs compression from gzip to lzo, and getting the 2.6.38 kernel with various btrfs fixes, things have improved dramatically. Also, I wrote the following script to defragment btrfs. This runs overnight and seems to help: #!/bin/bash # This finds files with lots of fragments, then defragments them. Thunderbird has sqlite databases # that get *very* fragmented. { for tree in $(mount | awk '$2=="on" && $4=="type" && $5=="btrfs" {print $3;}') do ionice -c3 find -L $tree -xdev -type f -size 320k -mtime -60 -execdir filefrag {} + done } | awk '{n=$(NF-2) + 0; if(n>40) {i=match($0, ": [0-9]+ extent.*found"); print substr($0, 1, i-1);}}' | { while read f do btrfs filesystem defragment "$f" done } ** Package changed: thunderbird (Ubuntu) => btrfs (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/681183 Title: Thunderbird hangs and greys out for 10-20 seconds To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/btrfs/+bug/681183/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

After testing evolution I gave TB the "last chance". I deleted my old profile via renaming ~/.thunderbird to ~/.thunderbird-old and started again. Therefore I had to reconfigure all my configurations and reinstall plugins, but after that the issue was gone. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/681183 Title: Thunderbird hangs and greys out for 10-20 seconds -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I am seeing the same issue. When Thunderbird hangs and itĀ“s window is greyed out, there is heavy disk usage and in the processlistĀ“s "waiting channel" thunderbird-bin shows "blkdev_issue_flush". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/681183 Title: Thunderbird hangs and greys out for 10-20 seconds -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I should say that the hang happens on most right clicks, such as a right click to get an e-mail address from the address list in a message's header. -- Thunderbird hangs and greys out for 10-20 seconds https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/681183 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
