First I was running 6.3 but I upgraded to 7.0 thinking that it might of solve the problem but it didn't. What amazes me is, I've got ubuntu installed on the same machine and it only takes 3 seconds to start, also it only takes 3 seconds to start in windows. Evolution running like this is completely worthless. Any ideas what might be causing this? Please respond to my email address also. > > > > > > This has been discussed on this mailing list before.

Well, I disabled all the plugins and still takes 40 seconds to open that's a lot longer than linux with all the plugins enabled. As far I'm concerned evolution is out of my list of programs, I still have my doubts about the real reason as to why it takes so long to open. In reality there's no real reason as to why a program will take so long to open, if that's the case evolution will loose a lot of users in the FreeBSD community.
