forking/db3/performance problem

2001-05-11 Thread Noll Janos
Hi! We've experienced the same problem with cyrus 2.0.xx as some of you have, it seem the db3 part can sometimes "deadlock". There is a partial solution: make cyrus use text files, instead of db3. You have to modify one or two lines in the source, but sadly I don't have the source here with me
