reassign 606016 debian-edu thanks Hi, from my discussion with the akonadi maintainer: < h01ger> is there a way to turn off akonadi globally? its unusable when 20 users log into a ltsp server at the same time.. not everybody is running kde4 on her own laptop <svuorela> just remove it. <svuorela> (yes, it will remove kmail and kaddressbook and such) <h01ger> well, i think we want kmail. though of course we could go with icedove or something else <svuorela> akonadi is not a addon. akonadi is a crucial piece of infrastructure for people dealing with contacts, email and calendar data with apps built on kde platform, or in other ways using akonadi <h01ger> hmmm <h01ger> might be the way to go for us for squeeze still :/ <svuorela> I don't see what your problem is though <h01ger> seen my bug report against akonadi? <h01ger> on login, akonadi uses 100% cpu for a minute <h01ger> if 20 people log in at the same time, using thin clients, this becomes 20min of 100% cpu <h01ger> plus wasted diskspace <svuorela> on every login or on first login ? <svuorela> for me, it doesn't start until I launch kontact <h01ger> i think only on first login <svuorela> but akonadi isn't indexing anything <h01ger> hmmmm <svuorela> especially not for new users <svuorela> akonadi is a pim caching agent <h01ger> i have to admit i only know this from ronny@skolelinux.no, but he's clueful and trustworthy enough that i believe him. but the same is true for you :) so for now i'll say thanks for the info to you, disabling akonadi might be a last ressort. i'll keep this in mind and let you know once _i_ know more :) <h01ger> much appreciated! <svuorela> disabling akonadi is disabling ability to send emails <h01ger> yeah <h01ger> got that :) <h01ger> thanks <h01ger> do you mind if i attach our conversation to 606016? (and reassign it to debian-edu :) <svuorela> feel free <h01ger> thx Obviously I could also have understood Ronny wrong... cheers, Holger
