Wireless internet connection breaks up when kontact sucks 100% CPU

Binary package hint: kdepim

I've noticed a weird pattern, which consists of my wireless internet connection breaking up and being unable to reconnect while Kontact keeps hogging the CPU at 100%. Once I shut down Kontact the wireless connection is setup instantly.

I suspect this report actually covers two bugs, which are:
a) wireless network connection is dropped if an application is taxing the CPU at 100%
b) kmail taxes the CPU at 100% when checking email
