I have noticed that the larger a mailbox gets, the slower roundcube is to respond when trying to read a message. My "Sent" mailbox has 810 messages right now. When trying to read a message from my "Sent" folder it tends to hang a bit longer, but eventually works it's way through...

Roundcube seems to have some difficulty dealing with large mailboxes (large meaning thousands of messages). It can manage indexing one of these, but if I try to actually show a message in a large mailbox, it basically hangs.
When this happens, the browser just sits there waiting for a reply, and I can do a 'top' on the server and watch the apache process just eat up memory until it finally dies.
It seems that Roundcube is digging through the mail and not releasing memory in some way, which becomes a problem as the mailbox size gets large. At least that's my theory.
Does anyone else observe this? This is with Apache 1.3.34, PHP 5.1.2, MySQL 4.1.18 and Cyrus 2.2.12, running on FreeBSD 4.11p14.
Thanks!
