I guess I have run into the same problem. Supporting Vex's opinion, indexing my account with around 3GB of messages takes quite a long time, during which my laptop was indeed unusable. In fact, I hardly could not work today because even a terminal window responded painfully slow. Also, it is weird that there is no sign on the GUI that a reindexing is going on, resulting in that the user starts to spend his/her time looking around and googling what is going on.
It should be considered to limit the CPU usage or renice (if possible) the reindexing process, or at least mark on the GUI that some processing is going on. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/984801 Title: Thunderbird 11 has stupidly high idle CPU usage To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/984801/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
