Hi all!

Few days ago Thunderbird start consume 100% and GUI freeze. After restart program/OS, GUI works for few seconds (3-5) and freeze again. I've try to run program with --headless option but still it consume 100% CPU. I've delete cache directory and it didn't fix a problem.

I don't know what happens. I've found this issue https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1134343 and follow "solution", I've created new profile and for now everything is working.
