Comment 15 for bug 518336

I've just installed Lucid on an X24 laptop (1.2GHz) and the indexing just kills it. It should be really off by default. I've got a work account with 10,000s of e-mails and subfolders and it slowed down the computer substantially down to the level that I had to quit thunderbird to continue to work. Thunderbird feels much slower anyway than 2.x and this makes it worse.
So, please disable indexing by default.
