So here is what I found:
don't look at cpu usage, that's not a real problem unless you have 100% for a long ( >some_timeout) time. Just consider the average load. My rule of thumb is to keep avg CPU usage below 30% if don't have all SMTP session limits active and fine tuned, and dare to have an avg cpu usage up to 70% if you are sure that your session limits, local user validation ecc. are all sharp tuned. The problem is not normal load, but your assp must stand standard attacks, like spammers forging a from: in your domain, a dictionary attack etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
