indeed large - 166k lines, quote-printable Many of the garden-variety performance issues are listed in https://mzl.la/2Pco4S3 many of which are stalled on gecko core bugs One possibility for Luke's report is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=210943 - Mozilla is inoperable while it is loading large plain text message and takes a long time to load blocked by https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=319143 - large plain text file (150MB) uses all available memory and poor performance until hanging and thus to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=367116 - Hang loading 20MB text/plain page
This message is a reminder that Fedora 28 is nearing its end of life. On 2019-May-28 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 28. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '28'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 28 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Just tried the same in thunderbird-60.6.1-1.fc30.x86_64 with the same result (30m@4GHz, plenty of free memory and one core 99% utilized by thunderbird).
Moving Thunderbird bugs to Jan to manage them meanigfuly.
