Using dnotify dovecot's performance was very bad. The system consumes 90% of cpu with just a few imap process running (about 30 process). The performance using --with-notify=none was the same as using inotify, so it could be the solution for me.
dnotify has been deprecated for a long time, and inotify has been recommended to be used instead for just as long...
You are using SLES10 - isn't ?
Yes.
Have you contacted SuSE developers about this inotify problem?
Not yet.
Even if there is something wrong with dovecot it MUST NOT cause kernel level crash, just return error to dovecot...
I will try RedHat ES5. Unfornately I have to use Suse or RedHat to have a better support on problems with the storage from Hitachi.
