Seamonkey-2.53.1 very slow opening mail window due to Lightning
by ljb643 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#50E89)
After upgrading (Slackware-14.2/32bit) to seamonkey-2.53.1-i686-2 it takes a very long time to open the Mail/News window: over 30 seconds. Once that is open, the Calendar tab opens quickly, but it takes about 10 seconds to open the Tasks tab. Before, with Seamonkey-2.49.5, all of these were quick, less than 2 seconds.
If I disable the Lightning extension in Add-ons Manager, the Mail/News windows opens in 1-2 seconds like it did before the upgrade.
I thought maybe this was caused by Lightning now being used as a zipped file (.xpi), instead of being unzipped as in 2.49.5. So I unzipped it in the distribution/extensions directory and forced a reinstall to my profile. But this didn't help.
I'm back on 2.49.5 for now. (Remember: Backup your profile before upgrading. Also read the release notes: before upgrading, you need to clear your master password because some encrypted files changed format.)
Any ideas?
