Hi,

I'm running Evolution 3.40.1 on an Arch Linux openbox session, used are
healthy SATA 6Gib/s SSDs, 8 GiB RAM on a dual-core 6.60.3 "Intel(R)
Celeron(R) CPU G1840 @ 2.80GHz".

$ uname -a
Linux archlinux 4.19.190-rt79-0.300-cornflower #1 SMP PREEMPT RT Fri, 14 May 
2021 16:51:46 +0200 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Stored are way more than 100000 emails, POP accounts only.

Usually "generating message list and retrieving message" shows up very
short, a fraction of a second or a whole second, not annoying at all,
when selecting a folder, just sometimes it stays for an annoying while,
several seconds.

I'm using the GTK3 branch of Claws Mail on the same machine, with the
same POP accounts, but less stored emails. When selecting a folder by
Claws, it usually takes many seconds, if not tens of seconds, very
seldom it's that fast as Evolution is.

Assuming you access off-line IMAP or POP emails, check if the drive is
healthy. If the drive is ok, it's probably just the common Linux
bloatware issue and a computer that has not enough horse power.

Regards,
Ralf
