Hi all,

We did do on last week a very complicated production deployment for one of Linagora customers.

Their load is very special: many very big messages which put an undue pressure on James. Combined with a live data ingestion from an older platform.

There are numerous lessons learned, which will lead to code evolutions.

The changes includes:
  - memory footprint optimization and file buffering in more places
  - Limit the numbers of items in EMail/get
  - Infinite loops with forwards
  - Some handy performance related degraded mode options for emergency situations like "do not index bodies in OpenSearch"
  - Couple other performance enhancements.

A big topic that remains to be handled in the IMAP stack is handling slow receivers (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-3997). I strongly suspect it is still affecting us. I would need to propose a code patch applying this for IMAP FETCH.

I asked the Linagora team to help me through this. They did already start to open issues / polish the pull requests I did open.

While Linagora needs those code evolutions, it would seem very fine to me to add toogle to disable some of those changes if the community is not enthousiast on some of those. We could do that retrospectively if needed.

Best regards,

Benoit TELLIER
