Well, I'm referring to listing obtained using the command:

root@baobab:~ # ls -l /var/spool/mail 

and, yes, first run is about seven seconds, next ones are five seconds.
Linux takes under one second, same 595 files. Waiting another minute
leads back to a seven seconds wait.

Thanks for now,

Luciano.
