In fact, 100 000 users represent more or less 600 000 folders & subfolders. The choice of murder is high availability, even if one backend falls down, only 25% of the users will loose the mail service.

Each server has 2 CPU & 5 GB RAM.

Any idea on optimizing Berkeley DB cache?

I have to deal with increasing charge of by now 500 users that will grow
up to 100 000.
All mailboxes exist, for a 65Mb mailboxes.db on mupdate
    

Is murder even necessary for such a configuration?  Based on the numbers on Cyrus'
pages, I assumed 200k accounts on one big, beefy box would be ok (and management
more easily swallowed "4 CPU box with 8 GB RAM" than they did "lots of little
boxes.")
