Last time I looked at it, imapproxy cached authentication (but so can Dovecot!) but not SELECTs (i.e. opening a mailbox), which is why I wondered how useful it would be.

I looked at this code 3 years ago, don't know if it's been changed:
"I'd also advise against using it's SELECT-cache feature (disabled by default), since its design is fundementally broken. It may cause random problems with clients if the same mailbox is opened by multiple clients, or if the mailbox is modified behind up-imapproxy."
