Thanks Jamie, would you know what is the difference between gdbm and tokyocabinet in real performance terms on mutt? This is what I have built mutt with: hcache backend: GDBM version 1.8.3. 10/15/2002 (built Dec 16 2010 21:38:04) I have seen this post which claims that on an imap server, the network latency is the bottleneck, rather than the comparative database performance. http://us.generation-nt.com/answer/bug-585559-mutt-tokyocabinet-slower-than-gdbm-help-198913431.html I have also tried accessing a different IMAP account hosted on a courier server, which has less than 200 messages on it and only INBOX plus two folders. It is really fast (a couple of seconds) compared to Gmail which takes minutes. -- Regards, Mick
