If I understand Dovecot's auth caching, it will save DB lookups (or 
sequential passwd-file lookups, etc), but it will still need to spawn a 
new imap process for each connection the webmail does.

With imapproxy, the process will be kept running for a couple minutes 
after the webmail disconnects that connection and will be reused if a 
new request is made in sequence.
