RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude Virus & Junkmail
I use Virus and Junkmail (with a ton of tests if that matters). A typical day sees around 50,000 messages through the server. I process ALL incoming and outgoing mail with BOTH programs. Machine: Dual PIII 1 Gig 1 Gig RAM Hardware RAID 5 array (mailboxes and system on separate partitions) with 5 17 Gig 15K SCSI drives 2 17 Gig 15K SCSI Drives Mirrored (again, with hardware) for the spool There is occasionally a crunch (never enough to hurt, just enough to notice) because it seems that all of my users pick the same time of the day to send their email! My big expenditure on this server was on my disks and 2 separate Adaptec RAID cards. My old server was just 350Mhz but the simple mirrored drive set was always the slowdown. I could probably get by with twice the load I have on the same hardware. ¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤øø¤º°`°º¤ø¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤øø¤º°`°º¤ø splehP ttocS rotartsinimdA smetsyS TN secivreS tenretnI renroKbeW moc.renrokbew@pttocs moc.renrokbew.www $a="@ARGV";while($a){$a=~s/(.$)//;$b=$b.$1;}print "$b\n"; ¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤øø¤º°`°º¤ø¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤øø¤º°`°º¤ø -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Adam Hobach Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 12:02 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude Virus & Junkmail Hello, We are ISP using Imail and we are evaluating Declude Virus & Junkmail. I was wondering anyone can offer insight on how much of a load these 2 programs will put on our servers. Our machines have roughly 200 domains on each server. The server does both web and email services. If we install Delcude Virus & Junkmail on each server will this be to much? We have the trial version on Virus running and it doesn't seem to bad yet (but we just started it). Our servers range from PII-300 dual PII-1GHz machines. I know a rough estimate on the number of emails would be good but I really don't know. So if you have some figures for a server with about 200 domains and the amount of email generated a day I would appreciate anything Let me know about the stats for server loading...

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude Virus & Junkmail
Hello Adam, we run both on one server. A Dual P-II 350 /w 256MB ram. Imail deliver about 4k e-mails each day and we have about 8-8.5k incoming e-mails of which 4-4.5k gets blocked by declude junkmail. Rarely gets over 10% load. This is on about 60+ domains which one domain is for our dial-up service with 500+ accounts.

That depends mostly on how many E-mails you send/receive per day (you could have no impact on a server with thousands of domains and hundreds of thousands of users if there is not much E-mail sent/received per day, whereas there would be a large impact on a server with just 1 domain and 1 user that sends/receives hundreds of thousands of E-mails per day). There are other factors, such as the CPU speed of the server, and what percentage of your E-mail needs to be scanned (the pre-scanning in Declude Virus Pro helps out there, by only sending potentially dangerous HTML E-mails to the scanner, rather than all of them). But the number of E-mails sent/received per day is the most important. >I know a rough estimate on the number of emails would be good but I really >don't know. 1,000 per day? 10,000? 1,000,000? For a quick estimate, you can type the following lines from a command prompt: find "ldeliver" sys0408.txt /C find "rdeliver" sys0408.txt /C That will show an estimate of the number of E-mails received (ldeliver) and sent (rdeliver) in a day. >So if you have some figures for a server with about 200 domains >and the amount of email generated a day I would appreciate anything A typical server with 200 domains would send/receive about 15,000 to 25,000 E-mails/day, but we have customers with 200 domains that have traffic as low as about 1,000 E-mails/day and as high as about 200,000 E-mails/day. If you're in the low end (1,000), any of your servers should be able to handle the load. At the high end (200,000), you'll need lots of CPU power. In the 15,000 to 25,000 range, an average server (500MHz) should be able to handle the load fine (although you may see noticeably higher CPU usage in the Task Manager, it shouldn't affect other services). -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
