#3951: mutt is superslow -----------------------------+---------------------- Reporter: ps | Owner: mutt-dev Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: user interface | Version: 1.8.3 Resolution: | Keywords: -----------------------------+----------------------
Comment (by kevin8t8): The default for $thorough_search was changed to "yes" in 1.5.21. This will definitely slow ~h patterns down. If you turn that option off, do things improve? In general, ~h will be much slower because it looks through the message. If at all possible, it is better to use more specific search patterns such as ~f ~c ~C ~t, because those are cached in memory. -- Ticket URL: <https://dev.mutt.org/trac/ticket/3951#comment:1> Mutt <http://www.mutt.org/> The Mutt mail user agent
