Thanks Aaron for your reply

Well, my CFLAGS are

CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium3 -fomit-frame-pointer"

All the guides I've read have said to use:

CFLAGS="-O2 -march-pentium3"

if you're using gcc-4.x, -O3 is to be avoided ( apparently ), and I believe with gcc-4.x the -fomit-frame-pointer is also redundant with -O2 ... as it is with gcc-3.x and -O3

I'm running DBMail on an Athlon 2000XP, using gcc-4.1.1, and everything compiled with:
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -pipe"

and everything is rock-solid. I've now got a 10GB DBMail database, serving 50 or so users.

As for whether you should use the ebuild, yes it works very well for me.

Lastly, I've found that if I shut down my smtp server ( Postfix ) prior to starting the DBMail maintenance run, users can still *read* their email ( not move things around or delete ). It's just once you get insert / update commands that things grind to a halt.
