Crap... Late to getting back to this. Newsgroups used to churn through a ton of messages. I don't remember them bogging down this badly. ;(

  Maybe it boils down to async being hard and Mutt actually using synchronous network transfers, obliviously assuming they would be zero-cost which they are obviously not. There's also this work in configuration that you have to do to shoehorn Gmail's labels into Mutt's mailboxes. Oh, have I mentioned already that your 100K+ messages in one maildir will be really, really taxing on your filesystem? I don't know, maybe someone should come and try and reinvent this whole crap around more modern workflows.

    I'm tempted to get gnus running again. :) Love to see how things compare to my memory.
