I've not seen to many lately, but maybe that is due to differences in
say mbox versus maildir storage we use?

In fact, there were a couple times when performance got worse after an
upgrade, though it was usually restored a release or two later...

I've upgraded only for bug-fixes, security-fixes, or because I needed
a new feature in a new release...

On the other hand, dovecot was so fast compared to our old wu-imap server
that I don't really care if it gets faster or not!  The switch to
dovecot was so great anything else since then is just gravy...

Again, this might be storage related, or something...  Don't assume it
applies to everyone.
