Given that most of the interesting database access done by cyrus is done by enumerating the great majority of the database, I don't believe this is really a way to speed anything up (perhaps duplicate delivery and tls sessions could benefit from it). You'd need to write a cyrusdb backend. It should be pretty straightforward (see lib/cyrusdb.h for the API you would need to implement). -Rob -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Rob Siemborski * Andrew Systems Group * Cyert Hall 207 * 412-268-7456 Research Systems Programmer * /usr/contributed Gatekeeper
