Re: Mail: memory hog



Most of the time when Mail has an issue it is either due to plugins or bad indexes in sqllite.

If you create another account and open Mail, does it dog your server?

I'm transitioning to Leopard Server from Solaris and have noticed that Apple Mail is a complete and total memory hog. I've got 4 GB RAM on a brand-new MacPro. As soon as I fire up Mail, it consumes all of the available memory and the system grinds to a halt. I see minimal CPU activity, but the machine is sluggish as molasses. I've switched to Thunderbird and don't see this behavior at all. Since this is a brand new machine, there's almost no mail on it.

Anyone have any ideas what's going on here? Or how to improve the situation?

Many thanks,

Benn
