Dear Folks, Using head of imaptest with dovecot 2.1, I am attempting to put a heavy load on the server, with insufficient success.
I made 15000 user accounts, put them in to a file, one per line. Then I ran imaptest with ./imaptest userfile=../../imap-test-userlist-15001.txt clients=15001 pass=SECRETPASSWORD But CPU load is only reaching 20. I put an mbox containing 67 messages into ~/mail/dovecot-crlf So what is the best way to put a really heavy load on an imap server? The documentation describes testing correctness of the server without really emphasising performance. I would like to do something like dnsperf, which adds a linearly increasing load until the server is unable to cope. This machine has 24G RAM and 8 cores. I'll be grateful for any constructive suggestions. -- Nick Urbanik http://nicku.org [email protected] GPG: 7FFA CDC7 5A77 0558 DC7A 790A 16DF EC5B BB9D 2C24 ID: BB9D2C24
