I had a similar problem.  Try doing a tail on ~/.xsession-errors to see if it
is searching for something it can't find as there were "results 0" or something
like that while having an error looping through one directory after another,
over and over.  What I did, and I am not sure what made it work, was to then
try to do a small search (because it was SOOO SLOOOOOW) and stopped the search
with the stop button.  That did not do it but then killing kontact after that
using the kill command in top and the speed returned to normal both then and
after a reboot.  Using the kill option offered to me when Kontact was not
responding and rebooting had done no good at all, but this worked.

I think, but I am not sure, that I may have closed a search window without
stopping the search first.  I am afraid to try it right now to see if I am
right because I don't want to have this happen again and not be able to stop it
during a busy day when I need to use Kontact regularly.
