The filter is slow in regular-size mailbox and almost unusable on my bloated gmail. I don't mind getting results progressively as the messages are scanned, but it runs on the UI thread and UI is horribly slow while the filter is working.

The search is just broken. It gives messages that don't have anything of search string in them and misses the right ones.

I agree on the search, but are you referring to the filter search box? or gmail filters? the filter search box is the main reason I didn't switch to any of all the other alternatives like mailbird. It helps me to avoid using the TB search.
