Forgot some ...
a. I have had performance problems and found some applications using an
ENORMOUS amount of memory. Evolution was taking nearly 400mb at one
point, and epiphany wasn't much better. I know hot to use top and
gnome-system-monitor and restart things, but some people would just wonder
why their system gets so unbelievably slow... Restarting them helps fix
the problem, at least for a while. I may have a lot of mail, but jeez...
I can't be the only one who's noticed this.
I see this with the out of date version of Evolution I am running
(evolution-1.5.93-2) on an FC2 system:
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
20276 kms 16 0 330m 135m 34m S 0.0 35.9 40:43.51 evolution
I will be upgrading to FC3 soon, and I hope that will reducing things.
The memory usage appears to grow with time, and is directly related to
the number of messages per folder on my remote IMAP server (Dovecot on
another FC2 system).
b. In evolution, in the calendar, the scrolling seems not to work
right.
It won't scroll until I go 4 or 5 blocks (in the month view) and then it
will suddenly jump. Should this be files with Novell or Redhat? This
seems to happen not on my rawhide machine. (Also sometimes entries don't
update properly until restarting evo.)
Again, I see this with my 1.5.x evolution, but on my laptop (FC2 with
evolution-2.0.1-2) the calendar works much better, but I still get the
odd scrolling problem, like you describe, in the month view.
Dave Malcolm should be able to let you know where to raise the bugs.
When you do create bugs, please let me know and I'll add my experiences.
Keith.
