That's a folder processing rule? When receiving emails? Is that IMAP or
what? Here I only use POP3 and folder processing rules only apply when
you enter a folder (or apply the rules manually).

Anyway..

The Run-processing-rules-when-startup applies.. at start-up. It's not
related to entering a folder, even if it makes CM slower to start.

Well, I'm not really sure where is your rule set exactly, but I'm sure
it's a blind one: it will always attempt a match, on new/unread
messages as well as on read/not-new ones, but since it's not a complex
one, the impact should not be so huge on a recent system.

Here I open folders w/ n*10K (n in [1-100]) and sometimes approx 10
folder processing rules and it always take at worst few seconds
(Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU P8600  @ 2.40GHz). My global filtering
rules set is approx 200 rules from the simplest to the most complex
one (they apply at incorporation of POP3 stuff). Even w/ my previous
systems it never took minutes to process a rules set.
