Huh! Is that all???

Jumping into a folder with more that 10,000 mails can make TB pause
for a moment, especially if it's threaded and you have configured
the view for that folder to have all threads expanded by default.

I have nearly 170,000 messages in my working account and in excess
of 250,000 messages in my archive. Stable as a rock and has been so
for years.
