Are you sure all you are doing is looking at the index? If I just look at
the index and exit it takes no time. The only thing htat takes a lot of
time is if I read any of the unread messages in the folder, or of course
delete any. (another reason why it grows so much, because when it gets big
it takes so long to delete messages, i figure i'll do it later in a big
batch... then never do it later). If you read any message yarn has to scan
through and update the 'X-Status' header for 'R'. Possibly it could do this
more efficently (a lot more efficiently), but it doesn't <G>.
However if no message are read in the folder and one exits it shouldn't
take any time ... nothing to update. I just tried it... just to enter exit
a (large) folder takes no time here.
