I run a server with 8,000 accounts with dovecot rc15 all this time. A
few hundred is not a big number, since it's less than 1000.

Are you threatening someone?
Seriously though, there must be something very broken in your OS, I
think. I run FreeBSD 5.5-STABLE on about 40 systems, all with dovecot
rc15 and each handling at least 100 accounts (bar for my big server with
8000+) and I don't hear complains...
Why don't you start by switching OS? ;)
