Recently I upgraded my Opensuse 13.1 to 13.2. The upgrade went just fine. No errors.

I use KDE, and in particular for this e-mail I use kmail.

In 13.1, when I "check mail", the mail is processed through my filter rules in under a second (for even over 100 messages). Now, in 13.2, it can take a couple of minutes to process a couple of messages through the same filter rules. I ran "top" and saw that akonadi is maxing out the cpu. (see screenshot)

Would someone please suggest either steps to further narrow down this problem, or if it is a known issue, how to solve it?

Many thanks,
