Does this make it get fast again? If it does, it is only a very little. I am not sure whether it does or whether the little difference is my imagination. However, after killing that instance of Emacs and starting a new instance, rmail sped up dramatically. Well, there goes my guess. We can only await more information from you. If you do xbacktrace while Rmail is doing whatever takes up the time, you should get some useful information for us. You need to do this enough times so that you see a pattern.
