Still too much CPU consumption - especially when using Kontact.

[Bas Roufs - message in English]

Hello everybody

Today, I have been tweeking with a view to limiting the use of CPU by the 
system Kubuntu 11.10. I have followed most of the advises at the tutorial "How 
to make Kubuntu (KDE) blazing fast and optimise it for performance". 
See: http://bit.ly/tRJzap
This has helped to effectively deal with the worst CPU problems I have 
experienced recently. However, the consumption of CPU is still 60 up to and 
including 100% in certain situations - notably when syncing IMAP-folders in 
KMAIL/ Kontact. As a matter of consequence, it is very difficult to multitask 
with one or a few other packages, when doing so. At one of the two laptops I 
am working with, I even need to use some workarounds via the system activity 
monitor to get Kontact started at all: "killing" one or two processes, while 
prioritising others. 
Be so so kind to provide me with feedback and ideas to handle this problem.
Respectfully yours,
Bas Roufs.
