Yes,
I've followed on and off your kmail woes. From what you describe this is a
bug that should be fixed. kmail should not continually be putting a load
on the system resorting indexes, etc.. There should be debugging that can
be cranked up to cause TDE to spit out INFO level messages for kmail that
may give a better picture of what is going on.
If the problem is that your mail store is too big for kmail to handle
without thinking it needs to reindex -- that's still a bug and whether it
is a Qt3 issue or kmail issue, both should be solveable today. (just off
hand I can see if a limit is INT_MAX how a 20G mail store would be an
issue), Regardless, whatever it triggering the reindexing needs to be
identified.
Whatever was burning up the cores on your old box -- is still causing the
same mischief on your new box -- it's just doing a whole lot more mischief
a whole lot faster now....
I also think his archive is too big and also I think he's touching mails
directly or with something else, causing the reindexing, although only
hypothesis.
It could be also a bug - but how can one reproduce it?
