Re: [Evolution] Slow and where's documentation

I'm also curious as to why evolution takes a long time to start up.
About 10 secs for each component to highlight in the startup window, and
after that the different components take a similar amount of time to
open on first use. The New Messages window always takes a long time to
open. I never see any disk or CPU usage during the wait, so what is it
doing?


ORBIT problems, probably. I notice that, when Evolution gets that slow, if I
do (as root):

(close Evo)
killev
oaf-slay
rm -rf /tmp/orbit-(my-user-name)

Then Evo speeds up TREMENDOUSLY. Both start up, and widow openings - new
message, reply, etc.
I know that if I *don't* periodically do this, Evo gets very slow.
Especially if I leave X, and then come back into X.



Thanks,
This worked to speed things up again. I've crashed evolution several times since, but no slow down yet.
