[Desktop-packages] [Bug 320057] Re: Thunderbird hangs for 10secs when auto-completing address
In Thunderbird 38.3.0 I saw very long waits accessing a company ldap of several
thousand entries.
In short, while composing a message, characters typed were matched against ldap
as they were entered.
Using Wireshark to examine the ldap packets, it was determined that the filter
used to collect the
matching entries was of the form '*chars*' where 'chars' are those I had typed
into the "To:" line of a
new email. There were three such patterns compared against different fields in
ldap. The problem lies
in the very inefficient '*' at each pattern's beginning. For normal use of the
ldap completion of an email
address this is a waste. The comparison is too general for the application.
Of course if it ran fast enough
I wouldn't be as concerned. In my case, however, it takes some 30 seconds of
searching per character I type.
The fix was a line like this in my prefs.js file with Tbird shutdown:
user_pref("ldap_2.servers..autoComplete.filterTemplate",
"(|(cn=%v1*)(mail=%v1*)(sn=%v1*))");
where you replace '' with your own. Note that '%v1*' was previously
'*%v1*' in each case.
You should find your prefs.js under ~/.thunderbird/...
Now the response to each character in the 'To:' line of an email runs much less
than a second, and progressively
faster as more characters are entered. All as it should be.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 320057] Re: Thunderbird hangs for 10secs when auto-completing address
I am still seeing a big delay when auto-completing (longer then it used to take), but it's when LDAP is on. The issue reported above with seeing a delay with LDAP off turns out to be a configuration error on my part. There are two places to configure LDAP in Thunderbird. One in the account settings and one in Preferences. I had the 'Use a different LDAP server' option selected which means the settings in Preferences are overridden. So LDAP was on even though it was off in Preferences. With LDAP off, auto-completion occurs right away. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/320057 Title: Thunderbird hangs for 10secs when auto-completing address Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Confirmed Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird This bug seems to be very old, but somehow I didn't find it in Launchpad - forgive me if it's a dupe.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 320057] Re: Thunderbird hangs for 10secs when auto-completing address
I'm seeing this today in the latest Thunderbird in 12.04 (seems to have started happening to me more often in the past few months, but perhaps that's due to some server-side change.) It seems worth pointing out that when Thunderbird freezes with the address field drop-down displayed, the entire X session becomes unusable (due to the drop down menu having some kind of global focus?) until Thunderbird thaws. So one cannot even go do something in another app while waiting for Thunderbird when this happens. Everything grinds to a halt. (Also note that per the upstream bug, the workaround referred to in comment #24 apparently just has the effect of turning off LDAP lookups, so it is not in fact a workaround at all.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/320057 Title: Thunderbird hangs for 10secs when auto-completing address Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Unknown Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird This bug seems to be very old, but somehow I didn't find it in Launchpad - forgive me if it's a dupe.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 320057] Re: Thunderbird hangs for 10secs when auto-completing address
Ugh, ignore the misleading LP hyperlinking in the previous comment --- that's referring to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=373167 not a LP bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/320057 Title: Thunderbird hangs for 10secs when auto-completing address Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Unknown Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird This bug seems to be very old, but somehow I didn't find it in Launchpad - forgive me if it's a dupe. When composing a new mail, I start typing a few letters into the address bar of the Thunderbird composer windows, and TB tries to autocomplete it from the address book. The drop-down menu appears, giving me the possibilities that start with the letters I typed, BUT - Thunderbird hangs (compiz darkens the window) for approx. 10 seconds - then it gets itself up again and processes complete normally, no errors, no wrong behaviour - and the address book searches are correct. First I thought it was the prefs.js, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Long_time_to_open_address_book Funny thing is, that I NEVER had used Thunderbird 1.5 before - but I had about 50 lines with that nonascii in it. I deleted them, and gone was the problem, for a few days. TB worked normally. Then the problem reoccurred. Now my prefs.js is clean, and it still has the problem. It might have something to do with LDAP search as well - I first thought it has to do with that: I have a LDAP server on a openVPN network which is not always connected - and I thought the delay was a network timeout when TB searches for the LDAP and doesn't find it. But I now disabled the LDAP address search in Thunderbird, and the problem remains.

In reply to #25: I can confirm this problem/behavior -- the entire X session freezes while the TB address drop-down is frozen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/320057 Title: Thunderbird hangs for 10secs when auto-completing address Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Unknown Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird This bug seems to be very old, but somehow I didn't find it in Launchpad - forgive me if it's a dupe.
