In my experience neither POP3 nor IMAP uses any significant amount of CPU
time. Therefore having the files stored on local disks with a single CPU
running POP/IMAP will be expected to give significantly better performance
than having two machines running POP/IMAP and mounting the partitions over
NFS.
