I had similar problem when akonadi accumulated nearly 2 million files in the 

~/.local/share/akonadi/file_db_data

Here is what helped me:

 * Set "SizeThreshold=32768" in "~/.config/akonadi/akonadiserverrc"
   (default is 4096).

 * Run "akonadictl fsck" which moved unreferenced files to
   "~/.local/share/akonadi/file_lost+found" (safe to remove)
   and gobbled files smaller than 32768 bytes from "file_db_data"
   into database.

The above procedure dramatically improved kmail performance and response time.

To optimise further you can check MySQL configuration in 

~/.config/akonadi/mysql-local.conf
~/.local/share/akonadi/mysql.conf

and bump "innodb_buffer_pool_size" and/or other relevant parameters.

I reckon it is between you and Thomas. :)

One of the reasons why I like standalone library is that it can run its own 
tests as well -- a something rarely seen in bundled (statically linked) 
libraries. Unfortunately at the moment "libjerasure" package do not run any 
tests... :(
