Actually, based on what I'm seeing, the interesting point of competition may be more along the lines of "how much per-user mail can you successfully handle with Dovecot". Certainly, from the numbers, it seems our specs/storage for 150 users is in line with what many of you are using for 1K-10K+ users, and given all the issues we've had with indexes breaking, perhaps it's as a result of allowing 12GB single-user maildirs to exist?
Especially with beta5, we've seen our CPU/load staying very* low, but we are still seeing the dovecot.* corruption now and then, as well as some zombie imap processes, and occasional max open files exceeded...

What would be a nice variation on this 'competative' theme is: Who can claim the most number of IMAP users on a single box setup?
i.e. no external auth or disk mechanism. Just one. single. machine. (backup machines don't count of course)
