Memory usage improvements for 4.11The other day I went to buy a DDR stick but the shop was closed so the only solution was to sit down and fix some memory hungry applications ;). These will be in 4.11: * Fixed a bug where maildir resource would use 1 or 2GB when importing large folders. * Fixed a bug where mixedmaildir resource would also use 1 or 2GB. * akonadiserver wasn't clearing uneeded query caches. Saved 65MB here. * Kontact had 5 copies of all calendaring data in memory if you used summary view which * KOrganizer grew infinitely over night under some circumstances. * KAlarm wasn't freeing editor dialogs, resulting in infinite memory usage over time. * Mysql got up to 25 MB of savings (4.12) Also, Dan Vratil and Vishesh Handa have been working hard on performance/memory of nepomuk and akonadi. To be continued... |

Congratulations!
Hey, this is freaking GREAT! Keep it up. We really need a faster Akonadi, and thanks for your work :)
1~2GB!!!!! impressive.
1~2GB!!!!! impressive.
Give the devs weaker machines!
Rgeat news!
So this shows again that to decrease resource consumption of software, all you have to do keep the developers from getting bigger and faster machines ;)
So I really hope that Vishesh will not get an SSD before everyone else in the world has one :)
Agreed ;-)

meanwhile, a big THANKS to Sergio for the performance work!
