Description From Johannes Jordan 2003-02-06 12:29:54

sylpheed imports on my system (cel 500) with an average rate of 0.5 mails per
second at a cpu usage of 100%! this ment some hours for my inbox. most time seem
to be consumated by refreshing everything (visuals...) after the read of a
single mail is done. this could/should be optimized. giving a little window with
status output (% imported...) instead of alltime redrawing everything and doing
stuff would be nice.

Mmmh. Does this need a folder_item_freeze() & xxx_thaw()? Christoph?

This is probably what is needed. This patch will lock the summaryview.

i thought it was the folder_item_freeze() / thaw(). can be committed.

fixed in 0.8.9claws45

I noticed the same problem when getting mails from a local account, but had no
time to investigate it.
