With this option enabled, my ~/.thunderbird folder was taking ~30GB and I had to manually click "Compact" on each folder to get it down to 3GB (!). Please note that there is another bug about excessive mailbox size (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1068921), but this one is strictly about broken automatic folder compacting.
