I have a very similar setup except mine's an early 2013 MBP, and I have 
also noticed some slowness ever since I upgraded from El Capitan to 
Mojave.  The first time I launched MailMate after the OS upgrade, I saw 
spinning beachballs at startup and the first few times I opened smart 
mailboxes, but since then it's settled into being poky but not 
beachbally.

I assumed it was because I'm storing just over 283,200 messages in 
total, but based on this thread, maybe there's more to it than that.  I 
see the most slowness in rendering the message view as I navigate from 
message to message in my main smartbox, and in opening the reply window 
for any message with more than a couple of layers of nested quotes 
(people at work just will not give up the top-reply format).
