[Dbmail] Dbmail imap speed (is it slower then uwimap)

[jacques-beaudoin]

I have over 3000 users 18000 emails on a uwimap server
(2 pentiums II 266mhz 512meg memory)

I migrate my users and email to a dbmail/innodb mysql server
(2 pentiums III 550mhz xeon 1024meg memory) 

I get a drop in performance ?

A webmail query on uwimap took 1 seconde

A webmail query on dbmail takes 4 secondes

Is a mail server setup with uwimap faster then dbmail 

Thanks
Jacques
