Without tracing or profiling the code, it is difficult to know for  
sure.  If you can figure out exactly where the code is hanging up,  
that would make it a lot easier to debug.

What versions are you using?  If you want performance, you should try  
HEAD, or at least Horde 3.1.0 - since large portions of the  
IMAP_Tree:: library (which builds the IMAP folder tree) have been  
rewritten.
