Package: imapfilter
Version: 1:1.1.1-1
Severity: normal

imapfilter utilises as much CPU as it can get its hands on while moving
email from one imap server (locally accessable via the loopback
interface) to a remote one. The process appears to correctly perform
it's job, and the bottleneck is still the upsteam speed of my internet
link; however for the duration of this upload, the process sits on 99.2%
CPU, only releasing some when anything else requires it.

This also causes the load on the machine to climb to 1 higher than it
started, and apart from causing relatively minor slowdowns elsewhere in
the machine, does not seem to impede the success of the imapfilter run.

If I lower my upstream rate by 75%, the process uses 400% more CPU time
(overall) to run. If I enable compression on the VPN link, the CPU time
required drops also, keeping the link between the process and the remote
IMAP server completely utilised.
