[Bill Filler <1339016@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We were able to improve the situation by limiting how far in the past to
sync for calendar events. This was a combination of a new version of
syncevolution, and a patch to it and sync-monitor to introduce a
"syncInterval" configuration setting (defaults to 90 days) specifiying
how many days in the past to go back when syncing. For my caledar, it
used to take 20 minutes for initial sync. Now it takes 33 seconds! Will
need testing by others but this seems to help greatly.

Bug description:
  Mako running 116

  Initial sync of default google calendar ran continuously for 90 mins before I terminated it
  The ics file grew to 8MB

  I can see two major things from the log:
  - it syncs all past events (I would suggest starting with the current or previous month if necessary)
  - it adds recurring events repeatedly (is the query using the wrong API and receiving events by timeframe rather than as raw event data?)
