Dovecot is probably waiting for your storage to respond, you should probably take a more detailed look at your NFS link and at the conditions on the NFS server side.

Hi Buddies,
I have 2 servers running dovecot + postfix for pop/imap users. The users mailbox are in a Nfs storage. The load of server is ranging at 3.0 to 15.0. I really dont know what happened.. I read a lot about tuning of dovecot, and the changes are applied, how you can see. The Hardware of server is really good! The host have 8GB of mem and 2 sockets with 2 cores anyone. The server receives 900-1000 user connections in pop and imap. How i can aprimmorate this processes?
Some errors are displayed on the console randomly when the load rises. Example:
May 02 13:57:42 pop3(user@domain.com): Error: Timeout (180s) while waiting for lock for transaction log file //var/vmail/ domain.com/user//dovecot.index.log May 02 13:57:42 pop3(user@domain.com): Error: Couldn't init INBOX: Internal error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. [2013-05-02 13:54:40] May 02 13:57:42 pop3(user@domain.com): Info: Mailbox init failed top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0
I really appreciate any suggestion!
Thanks and Regards,
Rafael Volpe

did you notice
...
NFS is commonly used in one of these ways:
Dovecot is run in a single computer.
Dovecot is run in multiple computers, users are redirected more orless randomly to different computers. Dovecot is run in multiple computers, each user is assigned a specific computer which is used whenever possible.
The only way to reliably implement the 2nd setup is with the director service
...
so you might read and setup
