[hardy] evolution-data-server uses 100% CPU

[Brett Alton]

Binary package hint: evolution-data-server

I'm a little confused by this as I don't use 'evolution-*' (except technically the clock in the 'gnome-panel').

I just recently installed Hardy (from scratch, but kept my preferences in $HOME) and I've had no problems.

I have 'conky' on the desktop to view my processes, so when I noticed my computer getting extremely sluggish, I minimized quickly to the desktop, only to see 'evolution-data-server-2.22' using almost 100% of the CPU.

I'll gladly show you any log files necessary.

I'm not sure what else to tell you about my computer as it was a fresh Hardy install.

I have the exact same problem. A process called "evolution-data-" uses 100% of one processor without any reason, making the system slow. The problem started since login.

I recently updated from Gutsy to Hardy. Initially I did not have this problem, but upon boot after a system crash [due to failed suspend], I had exactly this problem: process "evolution-data-server" occupying close to 100% of one processor. After properly shutting down and restarting, the process was not running and CPU usage was reasonable.

and don't specify the ubuntu version to the title, the informations is quickly outdated and creates extra work and confusion
