Only if you dont do the rounds of distro bugzilla and newbie forums. Those places are full of beagle eating CPU and memory problems (some of them are due to some old buggy version of beagle that hasnt been updated in the distros). I dont think beagle is newbie ready i.e. plug-and-play yet. > Especially with the most recent release, and the upcoming changes, which > is why I think its worth talking about.

Kevin, I had a brief glance at the thunderbird backend. I didnt see any obvious place which takes a lot of memory. If the concern is the ReadToEnd() in the mork parser, then you can try to replace the huge content string with a StreamAsArray type implementation. I replaced one ReadToEnd() in the html filter in a similar way, check Filters/HtmlAgilityPack/HtmlDocument.cs - it contains the implementation. Might be useful. - dBera -- ----------------------------------------------------- Debajyoti Bera @ http://dtecht.blogspot.com beagle / KDE fan Mandriva / Inspiron-1100 user _______________________________________________ Dashboard-hackers mailing list Dashboard-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers
