I have a lot of messages I need to get rid of so I'm trying to use the global search to easily locate these messages so I can delete them. Unfortunately, the global search indexer is very slow. It only seems to be able to index about 10 messages a second. I have already tried rebuilding the index by deleting the global-message.db.sqlite file but that only works for a short time. Once the indexing gets to a certain point it grinds to a halt. Is there anything I can do to speed this up and get all my messages indexed quickly? Thanks!

1. how much memory is thunderbird.exe using when indexing gets slow? 2. is your Thunderbird profile on local disk? Or on a file share or remote disk? 3. Is it also slow if you have Thunderbird started in safe mode? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/safe-mode-thunderbird
