In my case, all drafts are saved locally, and for the 1-2 KB plain-text
messages I compose, there shouldn't be any noticeable lag. Certainly not
the 5-10 seconds I'm seeing, which is comparable to the delay I
experience when my 100 MB MS Word file saves autorecovery info every 10
minutes.
I found similar experiences that traced back to news.
I've been having problems for some time, with slow performance, even
after I moved my Seamonkey profiles to a brand new machine.
When I did some further poking, I found that performance improved
noticeably when I changed the frequency of polling news servers for
updates. I have 3 servers that I watch, and I had things set so that
all three accounts were checking for updates hourly (and presumably,
simultaneously). When I changed the polling schedule so that one news
server checks every 120 minutes, one at 130 minutes, and one at 135
minutes, most of the performance problems have gone away.
However, I noticed a similar discussion this morning in the Thunderbird
newsgroup, and I realized that the server I use to follow Usenet at
aioe.org, most of the newsgroups I follow there have several filters
active, to discard stuff I don't want to see -- some of it is spam, some
of it is stuff coming from trolls. I haven't done any testing, but I
suspect that it may be my filtering rules that may be the true source of
the performance issues.
