I'm using Evolution 2.24 on openSUSE 11.1 all day every day.  It has
been extremely stable and performance is very good.

Obviously there is, the Bonobo-free branch was just trunked.  I imagine
[don't know] that such infrastructure work consumed a fair amount of
resources.  Sometimes backends require love before the front-ends can
advance,  only end-users don't see any of that;  although in the end
they reap the rewards when the front-end [appears to] suddenly surge
forward.  GNOME 3.0 will be Bonobo free with all resources accessible
via the beatific D-Bus.
