Hello all,

after having found out that Evolution now reads news too, I decided to
give the whole thing a try and imported all my Contacts (700+), began to
use the calendar and configured about 2 dozen newsgroups.
Previously I had only used Evolution to read mail.

After all, I have to say it works pretty good and I greatly appreciate
the speed of Evolution even with big folders.

Alas, after a few days I began to experience the other side of the
medal, which looks like this:

  PID USER   PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+   COMMAND
28914 fionn  15   0  388m 233m  32m S  0.0 30.8 3:17.95 evolution-2.0

People, these numbers are incredible. They basically mean Evolution with
all features cant be used on any machine thats older than maybe a year
or so without buying another 256Megs just for ONE app! And I havent even
counted in the evolution-data-server yet, which jumps into the ring at

19613 fionn  16   0  213m  15m  12m S  0.0  2.1 0:00.85 evolution-data-

another 213Megs. Guys, what-in-the-universe are you doing with such huge
amounts of memory and what do you suggest can I do to tune that down at
least a little?

br,
	Fionn

P.S.: I use 2.0.2 from debian
