I may be completely missing the point and I don't know your environment. It looks like you may have designed in some delays if the server is pretty busy, especially during restart.

That's quite a lot but between bad guys and reconnects of clients after a restart, that may be limiting. I'm not sure I understand maxforkrate without a maxchild limit. That's probably a lack of imagination on my part. Maybe it would be good to prefork a few instances of each service? -- Scott Lambert KC5MLE Unix SysAdmin lambert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/ To Unsubscribe: https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/info-cyrus
