I was purely using the Junk folder as an example. It was so big because it had been a while since I last reviewed it and pushed the genuine spam through spamassassin.
Compacting made no difference to either the msf size or the occurances of regular stalls in TBird itself. After reducing it in size and doing another compact, the stalls ceased and the msf was minute.
This was all to further illustrate that TBird stalls for a disproportionately long time with bigger folders.
