I've just installed RoundCube a few days ago, and it seems the latest CVS is slower than the last release of 102105, is it doing more folder counting?
If so, I would like to put a suggestion in for a caching of folder sizes with a background update, something to that effect, to make initial login and Inbox viewing faster.
I have 750M of email in my imap account, one mailing list 'archive' of 56k emails. I should likely move the folder elsewhere, as it'd probably improve performance, but it'd be good for Roundcube to initially process faster.
Also perhaps an option not to count messages in folders at all. That would definately make things faster, or as suggested above, a delayed count.
I'm going to try unsubscribing from my old archive files and see if that improves performance for now.
Great work guys, it works amazingly well, but perhaps you're being very modest with the versioning.. :) And it's beautiful too.
Cheers.
Hi,
Actually RoundCube does not "count" messages but ask the server for the number of messages. This is called twice: ALL and UNREAD. These requests to the server take some time and we already has requests to skip this on login and do it in the background.
Unsubscribing should help because only subscribed folders are listed and requested for message count.
Don't know why the CVS version runs slower than the latest build...

Yes, unsubscribing from my larger 'archive' folders did the trick, it's very fast to login now, as I probably have perhaps 15,000 messages in my 'current' folders vs 80,000ish in my archive folders.
It *seemed* it was slower in the 102505 CVS than the 102105 release, but might have been my imagination.
Cheers
