I had a similar issue. I have 2 x IMAP account connections totalling 100+ folders and my entire email archive is around 5GB. Just over 2 weeks ago TB3 started to use huge amount of RAM and CPU power. At its worst, it was up to 1.5GB of RAM after just a few minutes of being started. I disabled global indexing and searching, restarted and ever since I've had no issues. Average memory usage is now between 60-80MB of RAM.

Hi Nick. We're still waiting for Noah, but let's start on your issue. If you haven't already, please please run through all the steps of https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Testing:Memory_Usage_Problems and report results. If you find the only thing that helps is turning off indexing, please get a msgdb log.
