In-memory indexes are pretty bad for performance. v1.1 with indexes on NFS and mail_nfs_* settings set to "yes" should give a lot better performance and reliability than v1.0. Anyway the problem is that Dovecot does: 1. Lock dovecot-uidlist file 2. link() 65000 files to destination mailbox 3. Unlock dovecot-uidlist If step 2 takes minutes, there isn't really much that can be done to fix this.. Doing the linking without uidlist being locked could cause all kinds of trouble.
