Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 198142

(Calendar :: General, defect)

Searching newsgroups and bugzilla for hints about how to increase performance on
calendar, I nothing but others also rating the performance as poor.
It takes about 10 seconds to open an appointment, and I only have about 200
entries, including annual and weekly ones, which would expand to about 400 per year.
My box is a Athlon XP2100 with 512MB RAM, so I see no HW bottleneck.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create lots of appointments (200+), including weekly, monthly and annual ones
2. Open an appointment for editing

Actual Results:  
10 seconds wait, where no Mozilla component meaning neither browser nor mailer
nor calendar responds.

Expected Results:  
Open appointment with less latency and not prevent from working with the rest of
Mozilla in the meantime.

Sorry, I made a mistake: Not *opening* is the problem - although it has a
relatively long latency - but *closing* with OK: endless seconds where Mozilla
seems to be near dead.
