But why is that? Why would the index file be updated so often?

BTW: This post is a followup to my "2.3.7 slower than 2.3.6?" post from back in July.

Fixed by https://github.com/dovecot/core/commit/5e9e09a041b318025fd52db2df25052b60d0f... <https://github.com/dovecot/core/commit/5e9e09a041b318025fd52db2df25052b60d0fc98> and will be in the soon-to-be-released v2.3.8.

Thanks. I will test this (once it's been released) by moving the index files back to conventional storage.
