Thanks, that's some info I needed! So at least, it isn't orders of magnitude 
slower than other installations...

I have caching, it displays messages immediately, but it only caches per 
session.
I have these options related to caching:

imp/config/backends.local.php:
'cache' => 'hashtable',

config/conf.php:
$conf['session']['cache_limiter'] = 'nocache';
$conf['cache']['default_lifetime'] = 86400;
$conf['cache']['params']['dir'] = '/tmp/horde';
$conf['cache']['params']['sub'] = 0;
$conf['cache']['driver'] = 'File';
$conf['cache']['use_memorycache'] = 'Xcache';
$conf['imap']['cache_folders'] = true;
$conf['hashtable']['params']['hostspec'] = array('127.0.0.1');
$conf['hashtable']['params']['port'] = array('11211');
$conf['hashtable']['params']['weight'] = array();
$conf['hashtable']['params']['persistent'] = true;
$conf['hashtable']['params']['compression'] = false;
$conf['hashtable']['params']['large_items'] = true;
$conf['hashtable']['driver'] = 'Memcache';
