I think this is really rather subjective and per-system issue, whatever
figures someone else might come up with on their system might be totally
off the mark on yours. My recommendation is that you try it out, it's
not that difficult to copy all messages from an mbox folder to a Maildir
and then compare speeds of opening those.
Although I'm not sure how you could compare the speeds without
filesystem buffering (to simulate a situation when you open the folder
after some longer time).
