I've noticed lately that when doing mail or many other things in
Pine as of late, it's been very slow. This includes moving between
screens, into and out of messages, marking and deleting messages,
closing the program, etc.
Not sure if this is related to my SSH sessions or not because I've
noticed periodical lag with those too. Just not to the degree I see
in Pine. The box is running 95-98% idle, so I know it's not maxed
out or under load. It's just so weird to see it act this way.
Anyone ever encounter anything like this? What can I do to fix
this? Much apreciated. Thanks.
It's probably something unrelated to Pine. I regularly use pine to
read a mailbox that contains more than 12,000 messages and tag, limit,
or view some of them. It's not that the load is insignificant, but
even with the following:
last pid: 38479; load averages: 1.99, 1.42, 1.03 up 0+02:59:24 02:08:40
54 processes: 3 running, 51 sleeping
CPU states: 36.2% user, 0.0% nice, 60.3% system, 3.5% interrupt, 0.0% idle
Mem: 52M Active, 347M Inact, 77M Wired, 22M Cache, 60M Buf, 992K Free
Swap: 1000M Total, 26M Used, 974M Free, 2% Inuse
It takes less than 20 seconds wall clock time for pine to open and
sort the huge mailbox.
I'm using pine-4.44 on FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT, btw.
