Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: evolution
I have just upgraded from Ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 (32 bit). The older
version of Evolution worked perfectly and was really fast with my IMAP
accounts (Dovecot imapd, gigabit ethernet), even if I have 4 accounts,
80 folders and 150.000 emails.
After the upgrade to ubuntu 8.10 (Evolution 2.424.1) it has become
painfully slow when checking IMAP folders for new mail. It uses up to 1
GB of memory, it continuosuly accesses the disk, and it seems to hang
for a lot of time (while accessing disk) on "Fetching summary
information for new messages in "some folder" (100%)". The network
activity is minimal and it seems "normal" to me, while disk, ram and cpu
usage are very high.
The only difference in my setup is that I have upgraded from ubuntu 8.04
to 8.10.
Other useful information: The server runs Debian Etch, Dovecot is
version 1.0.rc15, since I use server side filtering, Evolution is set up
to check for new mail in every folder. I have no filtering enabled in
Evolution.
I suppose that the issue is with the adoption of a different database
format for storing folder informations.
