Comment 10 for bug 87796

This has started happening for me under Hardy: very long wait first click, then just a long wait from then on. This did not happen under previous versions back as far as Edgy, but then my usage was different...

I tried a few things and can remove the delay:
* It appears that using a Google calendar under Evolution makes this slow...
* Once I deleted the calendar entry for my Google calendar, the delay is now gone.

So it appears the use of online calendars makes the clock applet slow to the point of embarrassment. Smells like a bug to me - can't the remote calendar be queried/updated asynchronously?

Anyway, hope this info helps Ubuntu/Gnome.
