On this computer, I have thunderbird-52.3.0_3, installed from ports. Thunderbird takes 38 seconds to start up, that is, from clicking the icon until Thunderbird offers a login prompt. On the same computer, I also have Virtualbox + Win7 Pro installed. The Win7 machine has 8 GB RAM. Thunderbird in the Win7 virtual machine starts in 7 seconds. In addition, Thunderbird in the FreeBSD host often freezes for several seconds, as long as 20 seconds or longer. During such "freezes" top(1) showed plenty of CPU and RAM being available. As per instructions on page https://wiki.mozilla.org/MailNews:Logging I did: $ export MOZ_LOG=IMAPOFFLINE:5,MAILBOX:5,MSGDB:5,timestamp $ export MOZ_LOG_FILE=/tmp/ztb_log Just guessing that logging these modules might offer some clue. Then started and shut down Thunderbird from the command line. /tmp/ztb_log is created, but empty. Please advise... -- Janos Dohanics
