FWIW, I just upgraded sqwebmail today and am seeing the same perceived slow 
downs.  It is especially noticeable when I first enter a folder.  The only 
thing I changed today was sqwebmail, all of my browsers are the same.  And I 
see the same change in apparent speed no matter which browser I've tried: 
Mozilla, IE, Opera, konqueror, and iCab.  Even lynx, links, and w3m felt 
slower than I remembered them being.  (Although I don't use them normally 
with sqwebmail so this particular data point is even more shaky than the 
others.) 

So I don't think it is a rendering-side problem.  Or, rather, if it is, it 
is a problem so widespread as to be in virtually every browser in use today.
