Curious; as the original initiator of the thread way back, I still see frequent stalls on Outlook 2003; they're definitely Outlook stalls too--the Cyrus server is not busy. In fact, it's an installation on my workstation, so I'm the only user. Ultimately, I gave up trying to stick with the organizational standard and installed Linux on my desktop (which I'd have preferred in the first place) and moved Windows into VMware. I set 'imapidlepoll: 0' in my imapd.conf, which is supposed to disable IDLE altogether, according to the man page, to no avail. I also disabled idled in cyrus.conf, likewise to no avail. I did not, however, recompile Cyrus to disable IMAP, which might be what Ken meant back then. I'm using the Fedora Extras RPMs, which are based on Simon Matter's; it's possible, I guess, that a patch is also causing a problem. Daniel, did you compile yours directly or is this a binary from SUSE? It seems like you have a few patches too, since some of that options aren't documented in my imapd.conf. > I have attached cyrus.conf and imapd.conf. > > We are running Cyrus 2.2.12 on SuSE 10.0 on filesystem XFS > (HW: Dual Xeon 2GB RAM, SCSI RAID-5 0,5 TB capacity) > > I had freezes up to 30 seconds with the same config running on > filesystem ext3, but this error was clearly on server side, the ext3 > flushing behavior was so bad that it caused incredible iowait and huge > load and full server stalls. Not that it matters now since you've switched, but you were probably suffering from an undersized journal, see: http://nakedape.cc/wiki/PlatformNotes_2fLinuxNotes Wil -- Wil Cooley <wcooley@xxxxxxxxxxx> Naked Ape Consulting, Ltd
