I'm running dovecot 2.1.17 with "Login processes" in "High-performance mode" as explained here:
service imap-login { service_count = 1

but i thinks I should also set "service dict" in high-performance mode since sometimes the number of dict processes reach the limit of 100 (from default_process_limit=100) and I find these errors in the logs:

dict lookups are synchronous. There can never be more than 1 client handled simultaneously, so it's not a good idea to set dict's client_limit above 1.
Do you think will be better set:
service dict { service_count = 0
This is already 0 by default. The limiting factor is the client_limit, which is 1.
or default_process_limit=200 (instead of 100)
Not necessary either to do such a global change. I'd set:
service dict { process_limit = 200 # or more }
