The only significant overhead of shared folders is the synchronization that occurs when a shared folder is opened. Otherwise the only overhead of a shared folder is an extra symlink that must be followed each time a message is read.

Exactly. The speed difference on "open" operation is the thing I mentioned. Is there a way to make the synchronization a background process? Just run one more thread (per shared folder?) to ensure the consistency. Synchronization of 2000 messages really takes 5-10s on PIII-800.
