High CPU usage

I'm using offlineimap - 6.3.3-3ubuntu1 from stable ubuntu repo and I
experience high CPU usage (80-100% of one i7 core) during
synchronization of really huge folder (say 200'000 messages).
Is it known bur and/or is there any workaround for that?
I have following configuration file, if it matters
------8<------8<------8<------8<------8<------8<------8<------8<------
[general]
metadata = ~/.offlineimap
accounts = foobar
ui = Blinkenlights
socktimeout = 120
fsync = false
[Account foobar]
localrepository = LocalFoo
remoterepository = RemoteBar
autorefresh = 5
[Repository LocalFoo]
type = Maildir
localfolders = ~/Mail
[Repository RemoteBar]
type = IMAP
remotehost = imap.example.org
ssl = yes
remoteuser = darkk at example.org
maxconnections = 2
subscribedonly = yes
folderfilter = lambda name: name.endswith(('|xxx-debug', '|yyy-debug',
'|bbs', '|xxx-root'))
------8<------8<------8<------8<------8<------8<------8<------8<------
I've also seen alike bug in ubuntu bugtracker[1], but it has nothing
common with xrefed debian bug[2] as soon as my connection should be
rather stable as far as I see.
strace shows nothing really suspicious except constant rewriting of
/home/darkk/.offlineimap/Account-foobar/LocalStatus/blahblah.yyy-root.tmp
for, probably, every message - but that's just my best guess.
