[Dovecot] Impact of log files on performance

Hi - im trawling through my config trying to reduce chances of timeouts etc - I use postgres for all the dovecot and exim4 authentication and location of mail directories etc - and found that by eliminating logging (or reducing to almost none) the queries invovled have gone from >500ms to <3ms - Just wondering if I'll get similar performance gains with dovecot (which is set to be verbose as I could) - esp during connection thx Glenn
