Description

When I deleted a huge buffer, Quassel got stuck. Client lagged behind the core server over 600 seconds. Disk activity (MD RAID1 with 2 disks) on the core server was very high. Finally after it had finished deleting the buffer, I received the some "new" IRC messages and an immediate disconnect (ping timeout) from all networks.

Can't this deletion be done in the background?

This is due to the database being slooooow when it comes to deleting messages.

It would be nice to be able to background such long tasks (such as fetching the backlog as well), but I'm not sure right now how feasible that would be to implement.

This is still still an issue with 0.13_rc1, even with PostgreSQL.
