Cyrus - GFS slow start and poor performace

Hi all,
Bron has analysed the problem of the low start and it seams due to the locking 
on the mailbox.db for each mailbox. Something like
//for mailbox in $mailbox_list
  // lock mailbox
  // do something
  // unlock

The lock/unlock seams to be a bottleneck for the GFS.

Using the flat configuration for the mailbox.db the slow start disapepars.
May I use a flat database for 4300+ mailbox?
Do you think I could have other performance problems in delivery/accessing the 
mailbox?
Regards
  Maurizio
