It is not really a long time, but takes significantly longer than with 
traditional IMAP (like 20 second compared to 5 seconds). This doesn't 
matter, if you look for new mails every hour or so, but may get 
intolerable when you want to be really up to date and check every minute 
(like I do in our company network).

I'm curious about the places demanding disconnected IMAP and why. Could 
you be a bit more specific?
