Dovecot performs very well if you have a very huge mailbox. I have a mailbox with about 30 folders with ~ 8000 messages per folder (with 200 new messages each day)
Running Courier-Imap, you couldn't access the mailbox, it was so slooooww. Courier also segfaulted very often.
While I have hardly used large mailboxes with Courier, I've _never_ seen it segfault.
Dovecot is faster, but lacks some features that Courier offers, the NAMESPACE extension, for instance.
