Q933493: Update for large PST/OST performance issues (and a few other fixes)

[Milhouse Van Houten]

No discussion of this? I'm hoping it has some effect on not-so-large PST
systems as well.

Brief Description
This update fixes a problem in which a calendar item that is marked as
private is opened if it is found by using the Search Desktop feature. The
update also fixes performance issues that occur when you work with items in
a large .pst file or .ost file.

It helped me with my PST performance problems. My PSTs are >1 GB though.

What kind of discussion were you hoping for when the file was just released hours before your post? People have not yet had a chance to learn about it, download it, and then gauge its effect on .pst performance.

Give folks a chance and then keep watching these forums for posts. I am sure there will be many as the days go by.

An article about the update has appeared in ComputerWorld. It gives a choice
few tidbits, including that MS is investigating whether re-architecting the
PST format is in order:
