Evolution has a bug in the search bar where all messages will be
searched for a null string, if the text entry field is empty.  This
absolutely kills performance, because among other things it prevents any
incremental rendering of the message list (every single header of every
message will be checked before displaying anything at all).

I posted a fix last week, see the archives.
