Not all in the inbox, or one folder, I hope?

Are the circumstances similar?  IMAP, POP3, local mail.  Similar folder
usage.

NB:  I make minimal use of Thunderbird, so I can only offer general-
purpose advice.  I don't like it, and it doesn't like me.  I use
Evolution mainly, and Thunderbird occasionally on an old Mac, and even
more rarely try it on Linux to help test something.

I keep my inbox fairly empty, like a pending in tray.  I've noticed
many mail clients don't like a full inbox, and since it's usually the
first thing they load it's worth keeping its content down.

On mailing lists folders I do have one with 41,806 messages in it. 
Ones like that can take some time to process when the cache is out of
date, but a mere fraction as long as you mentioned.

I will only get to see the messages that are posted to the mailing list.
