Hello. I just tried out evolution 1.05 again. I'm using the Mandrake RPM package evolution-1.05-1mdk on a current MandrakeLinux cooker system.
When I load some semi large mailboxes over an IMAP connection to a courier IMAP 1.4.5 server running on localhost, Evolution nearly always takes at least twice as long to read a given mailbox as Mozilla 1.0 does - and mutt is almost always ~4 times as fast as Evolution, but since mutt doesn't cache anything, it always needs to reload the complete folder, so overall Evolution will be fast that mutt. Anyhow - why is it, that Evolution is so very slow in reading IMAP folders? Here are the timings I've done: Mandrake Changelog List - 1902 messages - 9 MB -> mutt: 5 seconds -> Mozilla: 10 seconds -> Evolution: 20 seconds Mandrake Cooker List - 11574 messages - 64 MB -> mutt: 30 seconds -> Mozila: 70 seconds -> Evolution: 190 seconds MySQL List - 13136 messages - 73 MB -> mutt: 30 seconds -> Mozilla: 70 seconds -> Evolution: 190 seconds The timings have been taken with a "stop watch" from the time I clicked/opened the folder until the time the MUA was done with reading.
