Okay the issue with mail filters is worse than I initially thought. I tested it 
today on my inbox with 6000 unfiltered mails. I subscribed to big mailing lists 
so I get several mails per minute. Now if I run the mail filter, it never gets 
to filter older messages than today, because during the filtering new messages 
arrive that should be filtered etc.
Apart from that I noticed, that filtered mails are moved one by one on my gmail 
inbox. This takes forever, it is nearly impossible to filter 6000 mails with 
new ones arriving all the time. 
So for the mail filter it would be nice if:

1.) It could move several messages at once
2.) mail filters could run in parallel, even in the same folder (e.g. one filter 
for moving already filtered ones and one filter moving new arriving ones, all at 
the same time).

I am much faster if I search for the mailing list address in my inbox, select 
the mails and select move ... This seems to be a lot faster, though kmail does 
not display anything and I have to wait to see some feedback. It seems it 
moves the selected ones at once and not one by one. 

In case of the mail filter currently everything queues up and never gets done, 
see the attached screenshot.
