I use offlineimap with mutt, and found that switching to a maildir
containing of the order of 10,000 emails was a somewhat slow (taking
perhaps a minute or so), even with maildir header caching configured.

I recompiled mutt with tokyo-cabinet support (which allows mutt to use a
tokyo cabinet database for the backend header-cache database), and
opening the same maildir now takes a couple of seconds at most.

If nothing else appears to be the cause of your speed issues, you might
like to try that.
