I see this with the out of date version of Evolution I am running
(evolution-1.5.93-2) on an FC2 system:

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
20276 kms       16   0  330m 135m  34m S  0.0 35.9  40:43.51 evolution

I will be upgrading to FC3 soon, and I hope that will reducing things.
The memory usage appears to grow with time, and is directly related to
the number of messages per folder on my remote IMAP server (Dovecot on
another FC2 system).

Again, I see this with my 1.5.x evolution, but on my laptop (FC2 with
evolution-2.0.1-2) the calendar works much better, but I still get the
odd scrolling problem, like you describe, in the month view.

Dave Malcolm should be able to let you know where to raise the bugs.
When you do create bugs, please let me know and I'll add my experiences.

Keith.
