I'd say this depends on the webmail you're using. I used to go without 
imapproxy while i used Hastymail2. After switching to Roundcube at first 
the webmail was extremly slow, imapproxy helped for my use case 
(personal server, 8 users). I think roundcube is opening and closing the 
imap connection for every action but i still haven't looked into this.
