Did you already solve this? If not, just mail the strace output to me
privately and I'll take a look at it.

I had the same kind of issues. Moving dovecot to the nfs server
directly solved all my weird problems.

We need

support about 200 concurrents pop3 users, here is my details


Someone else was recently complaining about the same thing. Or was it  
you? Anyway, dovecot-auth doesn't know how many users are logged in so  
if the problem really is 21 *concurrent users* instead of n logins/ 
second, I find it highly unlikely that the problem is with  
authentication.


My guess is that this has something to do with NFS. Perhaps start  
Dovecot with strace -tt -f dovecot and then when it's slowing down see  
what syscall it says is blocking.
