Folks I need a bit of feedback and insight. A co-worker of mine is implementing an IMAP server here and has decided to ditch Cyrus after he thought it was too slow and could not configure it. That being said, I don't want to address the configuration issue. I am interested in the speed or performance aspect. He next installed Courier and said it was 100% faster than Cyrus... way to dramatic for me but..
Has anyone done similar things and noticed one server to be dramatically faster than the other? He knows about noatime setting but I am not sure he did it when using the Cyrus server. Has anyone ever seen any benchmarks for similar setups? Many thanks. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Michael J Barber SUNY Plattsburgh CMS Computer Labs Technician 116D Feinberg Library Plattsburgh, NY 12901 518.564.2319 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< ----------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------- This site run by Horde http://www.horde.org Apache http://httpd.apache.org PHP http://www.php.net PostgreSQL http://www.postgresql.org MySQL http://www.mysql.com Postfix http://www.postfix.org Cyrus-Imap http://asg.web.cmu.edu/ and of course GNU Linux by RedHat http://www.redhat.com ----------------------------------------------------- --- Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
