Matthias, you have said that the regular uidl code is faster than the
fastuidl code for 10000 uids. Do you mean while processing 10000 uids
on the fetchmail side or while getting 10000 uids from the server?

The fastuidl code downloads less UIDs from the server and hence has to
compare less UIDs to check for new mail. If there are very few new
mails, then the fastuidl code is expected to save a lot on the string
comparisons.
