Hello, I'd appreciate any help or suggestions anyone would have with the following...
I have 2 servers (both Dell PE2650s, 2GB RAM, Dual Xeon) running RHEL 3 ES (with latest updates), and the latest Red Hat supplied Squirrelmail (squirrelmail-1.4.3-0.e3.1) and Courier IMAP (courier-imap-3.0.4). Apache is standard RH shipped config (httpd-2.0.46-32.ent.3) and normal accompanying PHP (php-4.3.2-11.1.ent). I have the maildir for each user in /home/user, which is common to both servers (shared by NFS from a NetApp filer). The front end is looked after by a Foundry ServerIron. There is one particular account on the system which we need to be used by about 20 people at once. This account would normally have 5,000 to 8,000 (small) mails in the Inbox, which the 20 concurrent operators work their way through. This is absolutely killing the system, sucking it almost dry on resources, but not completely, as other single user accounts are quite responsive. But to open the shared account is taking about a minute, as is any subsequent action within that account. HTTPD and IMAP are using all the RAM they can get. I am slow to implement an IMAP proxy, as this is a shared account I don't know what nasties it may cause. So asides from that, can anyone suggest any way of making this more usable? Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
