I just installed Evolution 3.4 and found a massive performance regression¹ when it notices that a bunch of messages got deleted on the server (I archive mail quarterly so thousands of messages disappear at once). It was taking about 40ms to delete each one, with individual database mangling for each message. By introducing a new method to do them in a batch, I cut that down to about 50µs per message. It's a simple new function camel_folder_summary_remove_uids() which parallels the existing camel_folder_summary_remove_uid() function. I'd like to add this to the 3.4.3 release of EDS. Since it's just a new function, there should be no compatibility issues... but I believe I need permission from the release team... -- dwmw2 ¹ https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676403
