OK: over four deletions (50 messages each, plenty of time to suspend for GDB), the constant is "rmail-reformat-message". Here is what I saw: (gdb) xbacktrace "rmail-clear-headers" "rmail-reformat-message" "rmail-show-message" (gdb) xbacktrace "rmail-clear-headers" "rmail-reformat-message" "rmail-show-message" (gdb) xbacktrace "rmail-reformat-message" "rmail-show-message" "rmail-summary-goto-msg" (gdb) xbacktrace "rmail-reformat-message" "rmail-show-message" "rmail-summary-goto-msg" I am going to have to reboot my system (changing a device), so it will be a few days before anything slows down again. When I restart, I'll use the same emacs/src/emacs executable from 2005 Mar 30, but the latest CVS .el files. -- Robert J.
