Yep, a very well known issue, see the thread "KMail completion spams nepomuk" 
in this list and/or on the kde-pim mailing-list.

It's the same reason. With a large nepomuk DB, the completion from the 
addressbook takes a VERY long time (I've had 45 minutes on occasion!), which 
not only means completion isn't working, but also that the mail can't be sent 
because it's waiting for the akonadi contact search job to finish first.

Same issue.

We're discussing an akonadi-level fix on the kdepim list (using a separate 
session for the completion jobs), in addition to the nepomuk-related fixes 
discussed here.
