If someone has used these LDAP for this, there are a few things that I

Hi,
I've seen some chatter on NFS boards about kqueue being more reliable
than inotify when used in NFSv3 and NFSv2. The chatter is a bit old so I
don't know if it is true anymore.
Anyone have pro/con experience with dovecot on the inotify/kqueue
question when using NFS storage?

Inotify is for Linux, kqueue is for BSDs. Right? So I'd think there are

I'm guessing that's the problem. NFS locking seems to break/hang

Hi,
Does anyone have experience with bending the NFS recommendations to get
better performance?
The question is has anyone, with Maildir and the INDEX= on NFS (i.e.
dovecot.index and dovecot.index.cache, set mail_nfs_index to no. If so,
was it better to turn maildir_copy_preserve_filename
(using sticky connections) and that seems to work fine.
