I would not blame the software so quickly. We run imap-uw on very
heavily loaded boxes and rarely see problems with it. Sure it's
not the fastest but minutes of wait? No. I would suggest looking
at:
1) DNS issues (resolution issues)
2) If it's login related checking into PAM issues (DB issues)
3) Check network problems (Duplex mismatch? Congestion?)
4) Check hardware problems (Disk especially)
