            Bug ID: 333560
           Summary: Telepathy contactlist unresponsive when activating
                    grouping of thousand contacts
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: telepathy
           Version: 0.8.0
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: contactlist
          Assignee: kde-telepathy-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: facorread at gmail.com

I have near 3000 contacts in my accounts. I keep grouping disabled at the
contact list because if I ever activate it, the application becomes completely
unresponsive while checking for each contact's groups. In my case I have to
wait for up to 10 minutes until I am able to use the application again.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable your Facebook, Google, Skype, and other accounts that add up to more
than 1000 contacts.
2. Enable groups: Click the configuration button to the right, click menu
option "Contact Grouping" and "Show contacts by groups"
3. Disable groups.
Actual Results:  
When groups are disabled, the UI is pretty fast.
When groups are activated, the UI is unresponsive for several minutes.

Expected Results:  
The UI to be unresponsive for some seconds at most. The contactlist is supposed
to be querying the in-memory the contacts to see their tags/groups. This should
be pretty fast.

Workaround: Not using the grouping feature.

This is just a minor annoyance; everything else is fantastic about KDE
Telepathy. Keep up the work.
