Apparently, Wl search speed in IMAP folders is limited by the speed of
IMAP server. Zimbra server is pretty fast in that respect. Speed in
offline mode, when Wl does searches itself, is also enough fast for
me.
As for development activeness - is it what you really need? Wl is very
powerful in it's present shape, it doesn't require zillions of patches
every day. Also, Emacs fellow found that non-Emacsen clients are major
drawback, 'cause they do not integrated in Emacs. And from my personal
experience, it is *significantly* easier to hack Emacs stuff written
in elisp, than that horror mess in C/C++, even I'm more proficient in
C/C++ than in Lisp.
