There are some real performance killers like image preview and the  
like which where not available in older releases. Try disable them.  
There are also some new features which can stress the DB. Have a look  
if you are using old datatree for shares and the like. There also has  
been some change in detecting IMAP root. Maybe you are scanning too  
much at login.

Regards

Andreas
