1893571 - slow quick filter

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Search, defect)

Nightly build 127.0a1 20240424100914, quick filter can be janky. I could be wrong but I feel like this started happenin in the last few weeks.

1. Inbox folder for work account, not unified folder mode - unthreaded, sort by date ascending, 13,000 messages
2. type or paste "test" in quick filter, display of message list and count of filtered messages changed in two parts - the final display and one intermediate
3. click "clear text field", display of message list and count of filtered messages changed in two parts - the final display and one intermediate

Result: both show as being about 3 seconds in this performance profile https://share.firefox.dev/4bcyuaE - #2 first and #3 second.
Alternate result: change folder to threaded, there is no intermediate result

Abbreviated stack is roughly:
nsMsgQuickSearchDBView::Open
nsMsgThreadedDBView::InitSort
nsMsgDBView::Sort
std::__1::sort[abi:un170006]
std::__1::__partition_with_equals_on_right[abi:un170006]
nsMsgDatabase::RowCellColumnToAddressCollationKey
mozilla::mailnews::DecodedHeader

bug 1908761 was fixed in early August and then on 130.0b3 August 26.

I have not been seeing this issue in recent months.
