This is related to bug 698275, which did not cover all cases.
The problem here is that the dconf can in certain situation claim
that everything changed (path "/" changed), which GSettingsBinding
propagates to a GObject property unconditionally and GObject's
property setter (g_object_set_property()) also notifies about
the property change unconditionally, despite the real descendant
property setter properly checks for the value change. After all
these false notifications a callback on "notify" signal is called
and possibly an expensive operation is run.
Checking whether the value really changed helps in performance, for
which were added new e-util functions:
e_signal_connect_notify()
e_signal_connect_notify_after()
e_signal_connect_notify_swapped()
e_signal_connect_notify_object()
which have the same prototype as their GLib counterparts, but they allow
only "notify::..." signals and they test whether the value really changed
before they call the registered callback.

Evolution consists of entirely too many small utility libraries, which
increases linking and loading time, places a burden on higher layers of
the application (e.g. modules) which has to remember to link to all the
small in-tree utility libraries, and makes it difficult to generate API
documentation for these utility libraries in one Gtk-Doc module.
Merge the following utility libraries under the umbrella of libeutil,
and enforce a single-include policy on libeutil so we can reorganize
the files as desired without disrupting its pseudo-public API.
libemail-utils/libemail-utils.la
libevolution-utils/libevolution-utils.la
filter/libfilter.la
widgets/e-timezone-dialog/libetimezonedialog.la
widgets/menus/libmenus.la
widgets/misc/libemiscwidgets.la
widgets/table/libetable.la
widgets/text/libetext.la
This also merges libedataserverui from the Evolution-Data-Server module,
since Evolution is its only consumer nowadays, and I'd like to make some
improvements to those APIs without concern for backward-compatibility.
And finally, start a Gtk-Doc module for libeutil. It's going to be a
project just getting all the symbols _listed_ much less _documented_.
But the skeletal structure is in place and I'm off to a good start.
