I once had this problem

Turned out to be the Windows Index Service being switched on

It was trying to index every file written to disk

That killed the performance

The other thing that I know can be the problem is an "On-Access" virus scanner (every 
file)

... rather than one called from say Declude as needed


hope this helps!

regards

Just a thought.. you might try setting the w2k performance options to
background.  Also check to make sure you have enough paging file size.  You
could try an initial size of 1536 min and 4092 max.. but it might also help
just to set both min/max to same size.  The background services, I believe,
will let all the treads/process share an equal amount of the cpu.  I haven't
had any issues/problems by setting/adjusting these mentioned items.. but of
course the standard disclosure is "Do so at your own risk."

Good Luck,

Subject: [IMail Forum] WEbMail Maxes CPU


We upgraded from Imail 6 to 7.07, running dual PII 550s, with 512 MB RAM. OS
is Win 2000 Server. The webmail (iweb.exe) very quickly maxes out the cpus,
doing so consistently. Since about 15% of our customers use the web mail
exclusively, we're in a rough way. So far we've done everything in the
knowledge base, and made sure we didn't have the NIC card that Imail has a
problem with, but to no avail.
