Mbox is much more slower during operations on it. It's because it's operate on single file,
Correct, but who cares? If the server provides high-performance to the mailbox... why care? Message format storage wars are silly.
I agree it's silly. But try to run dozens of maildirs and the same number of mailboxes on the same kind of server. Mboxes would be bottleneck of the entire mail system.
And then there's the problem when your mailtool screws up the formatting of the mbox file....
