[missing-sync-palmos-talk] iCal no longer syncing - another example

[Brian M. Criscuolo]

Steve,

How many events do you have in iCal? We've had some beta testers with  
 > 5000 events and the sync took a LONG TIME.

Yes, memory will be consumed - we try to keep it as clear as  
possible, but with a large number of records you'll find that it  
increases quickly. How much RAM do  you have? If you're hearing the  
hard drive, its likely that the system is using virtual memory to get  
by, further slowing the process.

So, if you do have a lot of events, try to clean out the older ones  
if possible.
