Unexplained temporary freezes in Thunderbird Fedora 13

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In the past, Thunderbird would freeze temporarily while waiting to
obtain a GPG key or to load some graphics. However in Thunderbird 3.04
on Fedora 13 (x86_64) I'm seeing some issues where the screen goes dark,
even while I am composing. After a short while, it cathes up. My system
is an x86_64 system with 6GB RAM and an AMD quad core processor. I have
2 sources I get email from, (1) gmail via IMAP, (2) my ISP via POP.
AFAIK, Thunderbird downloads new email in the background, and has not
affected the performance. What is annoying is that this freeze occurs
while composing email, so that the other things, like waiting for a GPG
key to be downloaded or waiting for a very large email body to display
is not in play. I'm looking to see if anyone else is experiencing
similar issues for corroboration purposes.  For instance, I encountered
it this morning before leaving for work. My system was relatively idle
with firefox and Gnome-terminal running. I think I had about 3
relatively non-dynamic websites on firefox at the time.
