User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; de; rv:1.9.2) Gecko/20100115 Firefox/3.6 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) Build Identifier: Since upgrade to TB 3.x it takes a much longer to move e-mails from one folder to another when the mails (downloaded from pop3) are stored on a network share. Especially when I move mails with attachments it takes very very long. For example: Mails are downloaded from the mailserver via pop and saved in the in-box of the profile which is saved on a mapped network drive. the fileserver is running with ubuntu and samba, I'm connected with 1GB/sec. Now I want to move the new mail to another folder of that profile. The mail has an .exe-file attached and has about 8.128kb. Now it takes 122 seconds for TB to move that mail. During that time the samba process causes on the server 20% CPU-usage and TB uses up to 15% of my CPU. But the server and my client have enough power, this is not the problem. The problem persists after trying safe-mode in TB and deactivating anti-virus software. I also tried to change the locate from the samba server to a server running Windows 2008 R2... no improvement. But after copying the folder where my mails are saved to a local folder TB works a lot faster... here we talk only about a few seconds, nothing special. Some of my colleagues are still using TB 2.0.0.23 with the same constellation (mailfolders are stored on the fileserver running samba) and never reported such a problem. Only after upgrading to TB 3.x things got very slow. What can I do?! Reproducible: Always
