After upgrading to Jaunty, I started to have hangs in both Pidgin and Evolution. The symptoms in Pidgin are slow tab switching (3+ secs) in conversation windows and more when working with the contact list. In Evolution, almost anything that involves opening new windows or popups takes more than 20 seconds. This happens a few minutes after both applications have been started.

Closing Evolution and doing a "evolution --force-shutdown" in a terminal solves the problem and both applications become usable again for a while. Apparently, Pidgin does not need to be restarted.

I only have IMAP accounts configured, plus a few calendars.

Some specs and info:
CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.40GHz
RAM: 1.5GB

torvall@terra:~$ evolution --version
GNOME evolution 2.26.1
torvall@terra:~$ pidgin --version
Pidgin 2.5.5

I hope this helps and is relevant to this particular bug.
