Yes, I've been trying to find the culprit in ksysguard. As you say, the individual akonadi processes don't seem to use too much, the MySQL daemon is using much more, and kontact was using around 45% cpu, whereas since I made the change I mention in my last mail it has dropped to 5% or less. I assume that it's the interaction, of trying to do something that's impossible, that has caused the problem. It's still too early, though, to say whether I've cured it. > By the way, what's your Akonadi set up?

I don't have a stand-alone mysql server to use. I've always thought that it would be relatively difficult to set up. The only time I tried it, the instructions didn't work.
