It may or may not be the specific coding. Horde is VERY modular, and I've been able to easily add custom modules to my installation. I also run an older Roundcube beta as an alternative, and do agree that it's faster. The reason I run the older version is because I integrated it's addressbook lookups with Horde. Roundcube is a mess. There are hardcoded selects all over the place. The latest version seems to have centralized that, but it's still all hard coded. It's possible that reading and processing all the different php files causes some of the slowness - maybe having an object oriented codebase slows things down as well - but I'll take a little slowness to have the modularity Horde has. Another thing I stumbled across was that PHPs IMAP functions on a Maildir folder cause all new/ mail to be moved to cur/ whether it's actually read or not (Evolution and I think Thunderbird doesn't do this). If your backend mail server is moving a ton of files on scanning in the INBOX, that could slow things down too.
