Aha. Let's hope red hat fixes that then.

After I have cleaned away the duplicates I now have 3394 records in
the date book database. During my experimenting with the apps I got a
lot of duplication so it could have been a lot more (double!?) when I
got the worst sync times. (As it turns out not all records were
duplicated but a lot were.)

Well it could be that jpilot does some bad thing causing the records
to change. That would of course explain what I'm seeing.

Further more if that is the case I would also expect the same behavior
when using jpilot and sync with other apps like the Palm desktop
distributed by Palm. Right? I have been using jpilot and the Palm
desktop together for years without these problems but I haven't tested
it lately. (Been using Linux exclusively for quite some time now.) I'll
test this though just to verify this.
