BTW: Slow sending is unrelated to this bug report, which is about Kontact not
starting up. Further discussions should take place at bug 219687.

The delays depend on how long Nepomuk takes to execute the search. This can
actually be 10 minutes or more, depending on how much Strigi has indexed.
That's also the reason I didn't see this problem before release: I had Strigi
file indexing disabled.

I see. In case of the delays when sending or switching messages, running
standalone vs running in Kontact makes no difference.

Constantly? That sounds wrong. During mail fetch/sync, the CPU usage of course
peeks, but it shouldn't be 100% constantly. Is it really KMail that is using
the CPU or some other process?
