There's hardly any traffic during that period. Unfortunately it's a bit hard to see what's going on over an https:// connection by looking at tcpflow. :(
Of course you would need to turn off SSL. :-) So maybe set up a second RC version (from SVN) and see if it behaves the same.
I've seen some issues too when you have plenty of folders, large mailboxes - but I never ever had to restart Firefox. Sometimes there is a little "hang" when the folders are scanned for unread but aside from that, nothing major.
OK, I get a "little hang" of over a minute. I consider that major. And then what roundcube shows me looks as though there are no messages in the floder.
The tcpflow results are enclosed. If you do ls --full-time on the resulting directory you can see the exact times when the packets were sent/received.
If roundcube is asking the server to sort the mailbox before RC will display anything, maybe that's the problem. You might consider sorting messages by message-ID initially. message-IDs tend to increase monotonically with time of receipt.
