Dovecot. [snip] [1] http://www.isode.com/whitepapers/mbox-benchmark.htmlMy first questions about this test are what version of dovecot was
used, did they take into account the fact that dovecot has to build
indexes? A 10s ramp-up time seems rather short for that. What kind
of auth backend was used for each product and did they even attempt
any kind of performance tuning on anything other than their
product? This "whitepaper" comes across as extremely biased and
very short on important information.
It seems to me that it was a vendor sponsored test, so one would
think they designed the testing criteria to favor their product.
