2.8.0 is much slower when filtering mail

Bug Description

I have quite a few filters that move mail from INBOX to various folders. I'm used to evo taking a minute filtering 100 new mails, but since 2.8.0 it takes at least twice the time or possibly more. Even filtering 10-15 mails takes a while.

It would seem something related to filtering has changed recently

Thanks for your bug. What version where you using before 2.8? 2.6 or some 2.7.n from edgy too? Since when is it slow? That bug with probably better placed upstream which know the code better Speed issues might be caused by many factors and they might know what changed

Certainly one of the 2.7.91 or 92 releases was faster - I first noticed it in 2.8.0.

I am bitten by an evolution-data-server crash, https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/evolution-data-server/+bug/58940

and I wonder whether that might affect the speed somehow?

Will file upstream.

A recent update must have fixed the issue - in 2.8.0-0ubuntu3 I no longer have this issue.

Huh? Slow again! I must have made some kind of mistake, so ignore the previous comment. Evolution is still very slow when filtering.

Silly me - this must be because i happened to install spamassassin, and evo started using it.
