[Bug 691509] [NEW] gwibber starts writing to disk when clicking on a user

 

Public bug reported:

When using Gwibber as Twitter client, whenever I click on user icon or I do some action that creates a filter for messages, my hard disk starts working for a very very long time (iotop shows gwibber and gwibber-service activity), while cpu seems not affected.
PC became unresposive due to high i/o activity, and after some minutes I have to kill gwibber (that became totally unresponsive) to keep using my pc.

Everything started after last gwibber update, I think it was done last week.
I'm currently using last ubuntu version 10.10 always updated with custom vanilla kernel 2.6.36.
