I thought I'd try benchmarking with dbmail (v2.2.4) to see how much slower a SQL backend could actually be. Skip to bottom for the conclusions.
Originally I ran the tests with the databases being in XFS filesystem. MySQL's performance was horrible. It went 3-7x faster with ext3.
Timo, what was the hardware you used for this test?
Intel Core 2 6600, 2GB 800MHz memory, Asus P5B, 300GB PATA Seagate disk with XFS filesystem, ext3 created as a 1GB file inside XFS (once I get another disk I'll move to ext3 completely).
