Cyrus 2.3 CVS code enables you to split indexes and cyrus db files into their own partition. That's where most of the i/o activity is concentrated, so you only need to optimize that partition. The mail spool that remains can be raid5. Yes, ext3 does have its problems, depending on how many users and how big mailboxes you have. I'd recommend reiserfs. -- Jure Pečar http://jure.pecar.org/ --- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
