Hi,
I am now running thunderbird 14.0 and no longer have the problem - even with
max-connections=5
I am using IMAP with one account with 514 folders and 614 filters
~/.thunderbird/mail/ImapMail/mail.connect.uwaterloo.ca$ find . -type f | grep
"\.msf$" | wc
514 921 26878
~/.thunderbird/mail/ImapMail/mail.connect.uwaterloo.ca$ grep "^name="
msgFilterRules.dat | wc
650 1142 12952
Here is my current memory usage - note that it is great!
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
15057 magore 20 0 1181m 159m 43m S 0 1.0 4:35.15 thunderbird
