I think we need to first do some detailed measurements to decide what our performance priorities should be.

I suggest this based on my experience working on search performance of a giant repository. My intuition about what was slowing things down wasn't very good. After a little poking around it looked like notifications relating to calendar events swamped out most of the other performance problems, but those notifications were only a problem some of the time -- other times performance seemed very reasonable.

Yes, that is a more reasonable number, (although you need to make sure that users can import large amounts of email in a "finite" length of time). I'm more concerned about Chandler's memory/disk/ CPU usage with, say, 75,000 total mail items in the repository (a number I took from my current mail client ... others may vary).

Last time I tried to import 6000 mail messages, it took about 18 minutes on my mac. Not a speed demon but definitely bounded. Brian added feedback about the import to the message window and the user can see progress.

Having 75,000 messages in the repository remains to be tested, indeed.
Not all of them would be loaded into memory at the same time, I presume...
