Unfortunately, I can’t suggest anything but if its of any help, I have a MBP 
late 2011 with 4GB of RAM and I have done straight updates from Lion to 
Mountain Lion and finally Mavericks.
Yet I haven’t experienced any problems with Mail busy’s at all.  I have the 
“use classic layout” box found in the viewing tab of mail preferences un-check. 
Maybe you should try viewing your mail that way and see if the busy’s still 
occur.
Sorry I couldn’t be of any further help. The only other thing I can suggest is 
a disc permission repair.
I don’t normally do that but when I do I find it can clear up any oddities that 
may be happening at the present time.
