When I'm stumped, one of the diagnostic tools I use is process tracing.
Connect via IMAP, in another window/session process trace the IMAP worker
process (Linux: strace -r -otrace.dump {pid})), initiate the search and
quit.  Then you can look through the trace and see whether it gets hung on
a particular operation.
