On this box?  My test box is a scruffy old U10 with nearly no memory
and slow drives.  I can't really see a difference myself. The only
slight difference appears when I unset newsprefix, presumedly because
it has to search out more folders.  However, even this difference
seems very slight.  I'm not even sure it really exists.  ;-)
