is faster than Mew 4.0.62 on Emacs 20.7):

Scanning 4,500 messages on a local folder (Linux ext2), Emacs
20.7, XFree86 4.2.1, MMX Pentium 266MHz PC:

Mew 3.3 (CVS stable-3-2 on 2004-01-30) with the default values:
  02:16
  02:15

Mew 4.0.62 with the default values:
  05:56
  05:57

Mew 4.0.64 (CVS head on 2004-02-28) with the default values:
  04:24
