Subject: Inordinate delay while exiting a particular group
Date: Wed, 17 Jul 2002 23:20:57 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3d6tlvi06.fsf@fermat.mts.jhu.edu> (raw)
I have an nnimap group where I route all my junk. It has the
following group parameters:
((total-expire . t)
(agent-predicate . junk)
(expiry-wait . immediate)
(expiry-target . delete))
I check this infrequently. Each time I exit this group, it takes a
*really* long time for the expiry process to complete, something on
the order of 5-6 seconds, during which the load on my machine
skyrockets. Normally, exiting a group takes a fraction of a second.
I can't figure out how to track this down. Here's the result of
profile-key-sequence:

Any ideas as to how to debug this?
