There's no performance hit, since we're not really storing messages in folders on the filesystem - that kind of data is simply metadata stored in the sql database. And, since we don't fetch the whole folder (but page through it) there's no issue there, either.

The only possible impact is if you're syncing the folder via imap - then a really long folder list could hurt you.
