I have over 620K emails in over 1000 folders. This turns Thunderbird into an all day affair, just to refresh its caches.
There are lots of knobs you can tweak to improve the situation, but the bottom line is - 1,000 folders (really?!?), 650,000 emails - well... this is going to be a problem for almost any client.
That is actually the area, in which a non-caching client (pine, mutt) is playing well, if there is a stable connection to the server.
Some time ago, I read an article about the following setup:
- external mail server - no matter which
- local Dovecot and MTA - actually on some notebook or behind some slow link
- a cron job that performs a two-way sync with the external server, if the link available
- the user works locally only
