Mark messages in mailbox as read without massive performance hit?!

[Arias Hung <arias@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all.

I'm currently using the following macro:

macro index               M 
"<tag-pattern>.*\r<tag-prefix><clear-flag>N<untag-pattern>.*\r" "Mark all messages 
in this mailbox as read"


in order to mark all messages in a particular mailbox as read, however also 
using Maildir format results in a rather horrific performance hit should the 
mailbox contain more than even fifty or so messages.


Does anyone have a more fluid quickfix that would be kind enough to post?  
Recompiling with inode_sort and flock has improved performance just enough to 
be noticeable, but still leaves far too much to be desired.

Thanks in advanced.
