I saw this too. mbsync (AKA isync) was ~30 times faster in my tests. It
was also important to build from the git repo because, at least a month
or two ago, the tar.gz at version 1.2.1 was missing a feature that turns
out to be important in my gmail sync setup.

Built from the git repo it shows this version info:

g1@g1 ~$ mbsync --version
isync 1.3.0

A couple months ago I put a fair amount of effort into trying to use
dovecot sync. I ended up concluding that mbsync is faster and easier to
config.
