[imapfilter-devel] memory usage

[William Faulk]

imapfilter's memory usage is getting out of hand:

   PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
16366 wfaulk    20   0  656m 335m  420 S    0  8.5 143:46.09 imapfilter

I do have one filter that contains a "match_body" rule, but it still 
seems to be overkill to, I'm guessing, cache my entire inbox in memory.

I still think it would make more sense for the idle support to return 
new messages that can be scanned, rather than having to run through the 
entire inbox every time.  That would probably eliminate this memory 
issue, and it would also improve response time.
