questions about maildir to mdbox migration
Hi there ! Please tell how did you do the migration ? I tried to do this with dsync and performance was far from 'smooth and great'. 2017-09-29 0:54 GMT+05:00 Dave McGuire <mcguire at neurotica.com>: > > Hi folks!

Small file performance
Hi Volker, Thanks for the response. The clients are Win 7, Win 10 and various flavours of Linux, with Samba client versions ranging from 3.6 to 4.5.3. There is no perceptible difference between any of them. Network latency is never above 0.2s and mostly sits at around 0.1s. If that's a problem it is so only for Samba. I did as you suggested with the smb options but that just made it

3.0.4: smbd's + nscd's = 100% CPU; load > 4
Hi Everyone, the new 3.0.4 Samba installation seems to work find except that from time to time but at least a couple of times a day one or more smbd processes start running at 20%-40% CPU each and 6 nscd processes then share the remaining CPU power. System 70%-80% users the rest 20%-30%. Load rises fast to over 4. I'm sure that each such process is just idling, but why does it engage so much

questions about maildir to mdbox migration
Hi folks! I converted some of the spools on my mail server from maildir to mdbox. It went smoothly and the performance has been great. However, I have two questions regarding the process. First, I failed to notice the fairly low default mdbox_rotate_size, and I changed it in dovecot.conf after the migration. Is it possible to somehow make that change retroactive, to coalesce the couple

FTS index generation
Hi folks. I'm experimenting with the Squat plugin. I can execute search commands via direct interaction with IMAP, but I never see the expected dovecot.index.search index file appear in the spool. I'm concerned that I've misconfigured something that is preventing the creation of those indices. Is there a facility to have the squat plugin generate debugging messages so I
