Re: [Evolution] Contacts runs like treacle

[Matthew Whimp <matt-lists comnet net nz>]

I've fixed it! (sort of).  I've changed the view to phone list (from address card), and it scrolls like it should, I can select stuff without it bogging.  The initial load time is non-existant.  Ahhh bliss again.

Carry on.  Hope this helps those having the same problem as me.

I've just managed to convert my contacts over from kaddressbook.  However, I am shocked at how resource hungry, and slooooow the contacts part of evolution is.  Is this normal behaviour.  In total, I have about 160 vCard entries in the contacts section.  And everything I do from scrolling through the contacts, to selecting a particular letter, makes evolution drag.  Basically all my memory (256MB) is all used up, and it's swapping like mad.  My mouse cursor jumps about, its just horrible.

Please tell me this is not normal, and that there's a fix.

Thanks
