Sorry, I did not yet do the necessary steps to obtain a backtrace. But I
can add the following information which might hopefully help.

Sometimes, Evolution randomly decides to do some stuff in the Background
and then takes up a lot of CPU time and produces a high number of disk
accesses. This lasts for about 1 Minute, and while the CPU is at 100%,
about half of that time is actually waiting for IO operations. It
appears that while this happens, I cannot close the gnome-panel clock
applet.

I do not yet know the exact causalities, I can only share my experience:

When the Evolution Application is started, it sometimes does the disk-
intensive work without me interacting with it.

Even when the evolution Apllication is not stated, I expericend this
behavior, but I do not know if the heavy CPU- and Disk-Usage started
before I opened the clock applet, or if opening the applet triggered the
heavy usage.
