I doubt that is your issue; I run mirrored systems w/384, 512, 784, 1G,
and 3G of ram (all mirrored w/the same SeaMonkey's) and all run just
fine with multiple accounts/inboxes. The inbox for my primary account is
271Mb w/2,729 messages (not counting the subfolders etc).

The 1G machine (this one) is the one that is my primary work machine and
used daily. Mind you that the machines with lower memory are indeed
slower, but all work just fine. So, were I you I'd look elsewhere...
perhaps your file system is corrupt - try defragmenting your hard drive,
run memory tests, etc., etc.
