Hey everyone, Finally, I have upgraded to 2.1.3. I use skiplist for mailboxes and duplicate db now. Cyrus works together with sendmail and the server is pretty heavily loaded. mailboxes.db file is over 50Mb. The system receives about 150-350 emails per minute, sendmail is set up it deliverymode=q with 1 minute interval.
At peak times load average was going to 15-20, now it's a bit less in average, however sometimes goes even higher. Anyway -- isn't postfix supposed to be better for such high loads? I've tried to install postfix 1.1.7 (lmtp as mailbox_transport) however when load avg went to 50 I stopped it and returned to sendmail. I know disk speed is essential here -- well, it is fast. Any comments? Maybe Exim will be better? I guess I will have to put MTA on another machine, otherwise it keeps getting even worse. Sincerely, Nick PS. sorry, maybe the message is not for this mailing list -- i just wanna know which one works better with cyrus.
