Hi all,
I second fejjs thoughts.
Note that fejj recently improved the patch by removing some ugly pieces
of it. Fejj and me discussed (thinks like) the patch on IRC.
Note that the patch also fixes a lot non-mmap related memory

I am afraid that you won't get paid as Camel already has a
neat-test-suite and can be used/extended, IMO. ;-)

I have to wonder if it's even worth ever merging the mmap hack into
Evolution at all. If the plan is to finish Zucchi's disk-summary branch,
which also solves the memory problems (afaik) as well as:
1. introducing an API for using cursors to get at message infos
2. better designed on-disk format
Hi all,
I second fejjs thoughts.
Also i have been testing the patch for sometime now. Heres the

startup of evolution. And it does a wonderful job of that.
* The patch intends to fix the overall consumption of memory

Take for example Evolution. Using ONE WEEK of hacking, I managed to
reduce its memory footprint with at least 40 MB of ram.
I don't know how many times I need to repeat, because, this keeps coming
