We are running with maildir + nfs now, and for a larger (200gb) 
mailstore over NFS we run into performance issues with maildir (lots of 
small files).

Smaller partitions might do the trick, but we didn't investigate yet. 
Furthermore: dovecot and nfs aren't playing nice yet, although the new 
dovecot-1.0-test releases look promising :)

Same goes for plain filesystems.
