Comment 12 for bug 305428

Suffering from the same bug here on one machine (office), while not on the other (home). Both machines are running Hardy, both use the same repositories - so it's the same versions. The office machine has one more "large" IMAP account configured, plus a couple of CalDav calendars. Looking back, to me it seems the problem did not exist (at least not in these dimensions) before I added the CalDav stuff. Unfortunately, I cannot turn them off, since they are urgently needed for team coordination.

As for Daniels comment concerning the message moving: I do not need to do that. If I just start evo now (uses about 100M initially), leave the machine alone, come back 12h later, e-d-s is already using ~1G virtual plus 0.5G resident memory. Give it one more day, and it reaches the already mentioned 3G here as well (2G virtual + 1G resident). The only work-around I found is to run "killev" at least every second day, and then restart Evolution. Acceptable if that would be once a month at maximum - but "eight days a week", this is simply annoying.

As far as I can see, this issue may be fixed by #350143 (Novell Bugzilla; see also https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+source/evolution-data-server/2.23.3-0ubuntu1) for intrepid. Wouldn't it be possible to backport that fix to hardy?
