We're at least three times slower loading imap messages than 4.5 - need to
figure out why.

mscott's work on loading the message with one url has sped this up enormously, I
think partly because layout and libmime can start working on the message while
the imap code is waiting for the rest of message to get downloaded from the
server. I think what he's done may be sufficient.

Reassign to Scott, so he can mark it fixed - I think we're OK now.

the new msg display stuff + hooking imap up to the memory cache = one fixed bug.

What was our time back in 1999, when this was filed?? IMAP loading of a message 
could be improved, but it's not 3x as slow as 4.x  I do have a bug filed 
against folder loading though.  Can I verify this? 
Loading messages is fine, it's just our displaying (trees, XUL) that could use
some more lovin'.  Marking VERIFIED, our main perf bug is 63759 (tracker, meta).
