Re: [spamdyke-users] Question about Greylisting and deleting Zero-Length-Entries

Quoting Eric Shubert e...@shubes.net:

 I've been wondering though about perhaps using tmpfs for the graylist
 tree. That might be a potential solution as well for hosts that process
 huge amounts of email. Of course the whole tree would be lost on
 rebooting, but if that was a problem it could be copied off periodically
 and restored. If I get some time one day, I may do some test comparisons.


The thought of using up RAM for the graylist data doesn't fit well  
with me. I'd much rather have the RAM used as file cache, for both the  
mail itself, and for things like AV signatures.

Me too, but it depends on the amount. We're only talking inodes really. 
Might not take up all that much space. You're running a huge amount of 
messages though, so it might be a significant amount. Just a thought.
