dovecot - Jan 2007 - RC16 is a lot slower that RC7

I tried RC16 from RC7 and like other releases since RC7 it is 
significantly slower. I'm still trying to figure out why. But I have 
again switched back. Do new version take up a lot more ram perhaps? I'm 
running with a gig of ram, and I'm running a few other apps. It's not a 
fast computer, just an old 754 pin semptron. But the point is that RC7 
runs a lot faster than RC16.

And perhaps even rc17 runs a lot slower that RC7 too, which means you'll
never upgrade ;)

Could you please give details of how you setup the test environment and
the figures? I'd like to try and do the same and see what the difference
in performance is.
