I still see this behaviour in hardy! Just had a look. The worst part is
actually not the CPU cycles but IO. Evolution-data-server does use all
available IO, which makes other apps and the whole startup process
unresponsive.

I tracked this down with the pidstat utility.

The funny thing is, that this behaviour stops, when I start evolution
itself.

One case when I experience this is, when a resume failed and I have to
override it and start from scratch. Evolution just showed me a message
on startup, that it needs to recover some messages. Maybe this is
related to why evolution-data-server freaks out.

Anyhow, evolution is getting worse with every release. Now it does not
"go online" by itself anymore, when nm connects. It every once in a
while comes with messages, that it can't authenticate on some mail
servers and I have to retype the password. Magically, it does not have a
problem with the stored pwd anymore after I restart evolution, ....

I am going to switch.

Either to Thunderbird or to gmail.
