All, I was looking at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=595389 (which I myself filed, about a month ago). I would like those of you that are running Evolution 2.28, either distro or GIT, to run a simple test: stop Evolution, and then re-start it from a terminal after setting up an environment variable: export CAMEL_SQLITE_DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE=2000 evolution and then *guesstimate* it the startup was faster or slower than the normal startup. By "startup" I mean the time it takes for all tables to be read and scanned (look at the bottom of the Evo pane, where messages are usually displayed). Then try to jump around folders, and again *guesstimate* if the jump is faster or slower, again looking at the bottom of the Evo pane. Of course, this is a very gross test. Not only is it being, er, measured visually, but there are many other details that affect the results: - if you are running IMAP, or e-e - if you have a lot of emails stored, - some of your Evolution options, - etc. But, in my case -- local IMAP server storing pretty much all of my email, with 5 different email accounts, about 50,000 emails stored -- the difference between the runs is *very* clear. Please reply either directly to me, or to the list. But please, do test. Thank you, and cheers, ..C..
