Re: [Dovecot] Concurrent POP3 Sessions Issues
Did you already solve this? If not, just mail the strace output to me privately and I'll take a look at it.

Moving dovecot to the nfs server directly solved all my weird problems.

Timo, What messages should be see? I execute the commands and shows a lot of messages, i dont know what it means, i m not a programmer :) Thanks Mauricio López Riffo Red Hat Certified Engineer 804006455319519 Netline Telecomunicaciones Chile Los Conquistadores 2430, Providencia, Santiago.

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.
