dovecot - Feb 2013 - Upgrade from 2.1.13 to 2.1.14 and load doubled

Hi,

during the weekend I upgrade my mail servers from dovecot 2.1.13 to 
dovecot 2.1.14 (and rebuild dovecot-2.1-pigeonhole-0.3.3).

After upgrade all works fine, but today the load avarage un MXs is doubled.

Mailboxes are in Maildir/ on NFS and I'm using dovecot as LDA and dict 
quota only for quota usage.

May be a problem with the new version?

This is my configuration:

$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/dovecot-2.1 --with-vpopmail 
--with-mysql --with-bzlib --with-zlib

# cat /usr/local/dovecot-2.1/etc/dovecot/sieve/default.sieve
require ["vnd.dovecot.duplicate", "fileinto",
"mailbox"];
if header :contains "X-Spam-Status" "Yes" {
	fileinto "Spam";
}

if header :contains "Subject" "TEST 123"
{
	fileinto "Spam";
}

if duplicate {
	fileinto "Trash";
}

Moreover, in the log file I found these errors never seen before:

Feb 04 14:03:56 imap(xxxx at yyyy.com): Error: read() failed: No such file 
or directory
Feb 04 14:06:55 imap(xxxx at yyyy.com): Error: read() failed: No such file 
or directory
Feb 04 14:09:09 imap(zzz at cccc.it): Error: read() failed: No such file or 
directory

What do they mean?

Well .. Those errors should go away if you revert this patch:

http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.1/raw-rev/2b76d357a56a

But does it fix the performance? ..

Thanks Timo,

tonight I will apply the second patch to 2.1.14 for the performance problem.

Should I also remove the path "2b76d357a56a" or is only optional/for
test?
