Bug Description

Release: 11.10
evolution 3.2.0-0ubuntu2

Evolution running smoothly in 11.04. After upgrading to 11.10 the calendar view in evolution is very slow to respond. When scrolling the calendar view (either by using the middle mouse button or the scroll bar) evolution will crash very often (although not always), see attached gdb output.

Expected behavior: scrolling the calendar view in evolution should be fast and responsive and should not cause the program to segfault.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.
