Well, I've disabled Nepomuk Semantic Desktop and now KMail has become 
almost snappy. No more hassle with indexers burning my CPU, of course.

However, when I started this message, KMail hauled this notice at me:

    You do not have the semantic desktop system enabled.
    The following features will not work correctly:

    * Recipient auto-completion
    * Distribution lists
    * Per-contact crypto preferences

I completely understand that disabling Semantic Desktop "deprives" me of 
search and tags, but why the features above are tied in with Semantic 
Desktop is beyond me. At times like this I tend to think that KDE and 
especially KDEPIM has some serious architectural issues.
