Using XFce as my environment, while replying to your message:

         VIRT  RES  SHR
         138m  57m  21m evolution
        
But then that really isn't including the backend processes for
evolution.

         VIRT  RES  SHR 
         235m 9.9m 5408 evolution-data-server
        36160 9296 7764 evolution-exchange-storage
        67692 9.8m 8364 evolution-alarm-notify
        
Of course, you can turn off the exchange and alarm notify now. I just
haven't. So in reality the RES for ALL processes is 85.9m and the SHR
for all is 42.4m, roughly equivalent if you are lazy.

But, I can say the ONLY part my evo is having any problem with is,
moving messages to and from the "high-count" folders. But that would
apply to icedove or any other mail-client.

I am using: Evolution 2.8.2.1 from experimental.
