Description Stratos Margaritis 2003-07-29 13:45:52 UTC
Description of Problem:
I have about 200 Contacts, 500 Calendar entries
and about 100 ToDo's, all written with Greek
Characters using Piloc Greek. When I try to sync
with my Evolution V1.4.3 that i downloaded 2 days
ago from your site, I get the following problem:
The memory and swap get's filled up (192Mb of RAM
and 256Mb of Swap) and the only solution is to
hard reset the machine. When I disable the
addressbook and make a sync then all Calendar and
ToDo's are synced but in unreadable format from
evolution.... If I enable the Address sync then
the hard reset scenario is the result of a HotSync....


Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Create some entries with Greek chars in the
Addressbook.
2. HotSync and you are there...
3. 

Actual Results:
Mentioned above.

Expected Results:
Normal transfer of all contacts, calendar and
todos in a usable format!

How often does this happen? 
Allways
