I think Thunderbird *really, really, really* needs to have better mail store options like Maildir, instead of large files per folder. There's been some talk about this, but I don't know if anything eventuated and TB is in a lesser development state which makes it less likely to help it get some real improvements.
I (accidentally) solved that by storing all my local folders via a local IMAP server (dovecot, which uses Maildir) rather than using files directly. The idea (back in 2010) was that I could likely swap to Kmail in future once its Caldav had improved without worrying about the folder/message formats. cheers, Chris -- Chris Samuel : http://www.csamuel.org/ : Melbourne, VIC
