Hi Martin, I get that too, it started when I moved cyrus imapd to my local system a year or more ago. I've learned to live with it. To elaborate, something cyrus imapd does is when a mail comes in via fetchmail that mplayer which plays flac's or streams from an icecast starts stuttering. The combination of cyrus, thunderbird, and fetchmail may be to blame too, dunno. It may be disk related? I have a Samsung SSD. My workstation is a 2014 Xeon E3-1275 with 32 GB RAM. Regards, -peter
