You didn't say what platform you're using... if you are running Cyrus 
with the mailstore on a traditional UFS or ext3 filesystem you might 
start seeing the filesystem become a bottleneck if a single mailbox has 
a lot of messages. We run Cyrus on Linux and also have a lot of users 
with very full mailboxes. Using ReiserFS makes a noticable difference 
for a lot of our users, and in overall server load.
