Hi Timo, thanks you for reply. I'm pretty sure you are right. Quota recalculation based on Maildir++ standard is too I/O intensive for our system because we have lot of maildirs migrated from old system. Mail files are missing often size in filename so now I understand why so much stat calls. Is there any script/util in dovecot to fix filenames?

The problem with changing filenames is that it changes also the maildir base filename. So that requires changing also dovecot-uidlist. But it gets worse if you use base filenames as POP3 UIDLs, then a change in it causes POP3 clients to redownload those mails.
