[Bug 38054] Re: message list slow scrolling

Same here. Scrolling the message list is very frustrating. When I press
the arrow down/up keys the list scrolls almost 1 message per second
rate. CPU usage is 100% during this time. Thunderbird is almost unusable
because of this. Scrolling through the spam is very VERY frustrating.

Scrolling in the message-body window is very smooth, no problems at all.
Just the message/subject list is slow as hell.

My work machine specs are crappy: 1GHz Celeron with 512MB PC133 memory
and GF 4 MX graphics card, but 1GHz machine should be able to handle
simple list-scrolling :). I'm using Nvidia's closed source drivers and
the screen resolution is 1024x768 24-bit. I tried lowering the bit depth
but it didn't help anything at all.

Otherwise the thunderbird and Gnome desktop in general works very well.
(As well you could expect from machine like this).

Gnome version is 2.22.2. All the current Hardy Heron updates are applied. Linux version is:
 2.6.24-18-generic #1 SMP Wed May 28 20:27:26 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux

Sorry for the little information I could give.
