Please let me know if the situation is improved or still the same with the fix
for the other bug.

Flag fetching definitely is slower because I'm currently fetching the flags
just as messages in batches of 100 to avoid overloading akonadi. This obviously
results in many roundtrips, and I suppose the batchsize could be greatly
increased for flags (because a lot less data than full messages).

It was a timing issue, and it only appeared if the network connection is the
bottleneck. Apparently gmail is slow ;-)
