if you just symlinked the parent folder, i would expect it to just work.
i don't know what would happen if you symlinked just the mailboxes (or
parts of them).

maybe it crashed. do you use any wrapper script/daemonizer that could
have hidden the exit code from the shell?

don't delete it, or you may even lose mails (unless you delete the
entire sync state as well). the journals (and .new files) get cleaned up
on a clean exit. if it never exits cleanly, the journals accumulate, and
it gets slower and slower.

i don't know what one could tweak to improve performance. but
concentrating on that is the wrong direction anyway.
