Hi,
I've read recently about the performance patch in Evolution-exchange 2.11.5, which brings a major performance boost to the searching of folders (from minutes to msec!). Information about the patch is here: http://vvaradhan.blogspot.com/2007/06/evolution-exchange-performance-series_...
I had a look at compiling it manually, but due to the dependency on exchange-data-server I don't want to start messing around with this just yet.
It is also available in fedora-development (shows up as a FC8 packages) but again, when I tried to install this I had problems with Evolution, it just wouldn't connect to exchange.
I'm just curious if anyone knows when this is expected to be released as an upgrade for FC7 (ie available via yum) ?
Thanks, Andrew

I tried the devel version, but it wouldn't even start due to an undefined symbol in evolution-data-server, using both the latest release and the devel version of evolution-data-server.

That would be nice.

Hi Mathew,
Yes I found this exact same problem, unfortunately I don't really have all that much time to try and find a workaround for it right now.
I'm really looking forward to this patch, I use Evolution at home but it's pretty much impossible to use at work (on Exchange) due to the performance lag (it's ALWAYS updating folders). This may finally deliver a truly workable alternative to Outlook in the enterprise, which would be impressive.
Cheers, Andrew
