Same problem as described here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution-exchange/+bug/213404 (copy of summary below): I have Evolution set up with only one account, which is an MS Exchange account. When I create a new message, or begin to reply to a new message, the CPU usage goes up to about 60% for the system (all used by Evolution). The CPU will go down only by restarting Evolution. There is gnome bug also: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=543022 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set up an Exchange email account 2. Leave the Global Catalog server blank 3. Try Use the email account for around ten minutes Actual Results: high cpu usage (~60%) Expected Results: normal cpu usage as with other evolution operations It looks like this was fixed in new evolution version.
The launchpad bug mentions the bug going away with evolution-2.22.3.1 and the upstream bug doesn't seem to be updated. Are you still experiencing this problem ? If so we will need to teach you how to use a profiler to see where the cpu time is spent.
Currently using Evolution 2.24.5. No problems in this version so far.
ok then closing worksforme. Feel free to reopen if you come across this issue again. Thanks for updating us.
