I experienced the same problem, but this was more pronounced on IMAP accounts |
| 7 |
with many thousands of email messages (more than 100,000). That said, Kmail2 |
| 8 |
has the same problem, only on less powerful machines you also get the lag of |
| 9 |
mysql indexing everything again and again and again. Accounts with fewer |
| 10 |
messages were quite responsive on both mutt and Kmail2. Therefore I think |
| 11 |
that this may be an IMAP4 issue? |

I never used Offlineimap, but did try tokyocabinet with what felt as a |
| 22 |
marginal only improvement. |
