Not here™ on amd64 9-stable -- which may have little relevance for
10-current.

Any chance to figure out what mutt is doing, like with truss or similar?

Is debugging turned on; was mutt built WITH_DEBUG=yes?

Is the lag CPU-bound (near 100% CPU) and if yes, in system or in user
space, or is the lag IO-bound (near 100% wait)?

Can you verify the header cache databases, or move them away just for
the sake of the experiment?

Does it help if you "make clean" before building world?  This has cured
strance effects on occasions in -STABLE (RELENG_[6-9]) branches for me.
