I suppose some kind of an ACL cache could be a good idea some day too. And maybe a setting not to bother looking up ACLs for mailboxes in private namespaces.
Ok, so for getting off this problem I will disable acl support.

I think it would be really a good thing to optimize dovecot this way. So 
you can reduce a lot of I/O.
Hopefully I can get this fix - if available-, because I am using the 
Ubuntu packages !?!?
