Re: [orca-list] Thunderbird and a huge list of messages

[Didier Spaier <didier slint fr>]

Hello Christian,

Orca is written in Python, an interpreted language, so it can't be as
fast as a program written in C or C++ then compiled, so that's machine
language code that is directly executed by the CPU.

So yes, the only solution available now and in a foreseeable future is
to not to feed it with more input than it can handle in a given amount
of time, also considering that it relies on on *at* software that can
also slow down the process.

Best,

Didier
