I have 4 accounts (plus local folders). They handles thousands of mails, for a total amount of 4 GB on the HDD. All the accounts use the IMAP(S) protocol. My machine is a Dell Latitude E6520, with a Core i7 CPU, 8 GB RAM (less than 4 GB used now). My HDD is a SSD (Samsung 830), htop says CPU is very quiet, iotop says there's no IO peak at all. Everything was OK under Ubuntu 12.04. Please do something, this makes Thunderbird almost unusable, thus Ubuntu 14.04 unusable. Many thanks in advance.
