[Dovecot] rc14 and rc15 performance issues

[Jeff A. Earickson]

Hi,

I am stuck at rc13 because rc14 and rc15 have both failed to keep
up with imap connections on my (slow old) system.  I have the problem
where if a lot of people check their email at once (like at the
top of the hour) then my load goes way up and things slow to a
crawl.  My setup: Solaris 10 on an E220R, mbox format, imap and imaps
only.  I also use "login_process_per_connection = no".  Any suggestions?
