Our iMail server has 1GB of RAM and it moves along just fine. In fact, it's memory utilization never moves much beyond 250MB. Telling someone to upgrade to 2GB of RAM, when he says memory utilization is less than 5%, is a bit off the mark.
Defragging that system, OTOH, would probably be a good start. -Jay -----Original Message----- From: Rick Klinge [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 01, 2003 7:23 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] Webmail Performance Well I'm not trying to shake the tree here.. but 1 gig a ram? what other micro$oft services to you have running? IIS? Indexing service? etc etc.. fwiw, and imho.. 1gb of ram is just enough to make windows (servers all) idle smooth.. and flat line at about 1/4 throttle. bump the ram up to a min of 2 gig if the mb will handle it. use a 3rd party tool or what ever and re-partition the hd ... utilize berkeley raid.. it's your friend. defrag daily. perform necessary registry tweaks to enhance your platform. ~Rick -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Mohd Izham Sent: Wednesday, October 01, 2003 7:02 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] Webmail Performance previously i'm having the problem when i've migrated from 6.06 to 7.15. i'm running P Xeon 2.4Ghz, 1GB RAM, 64GB HDD. when the server is idle, the SMTP response is ok. i can get the banner less than a second. but, when the clients starts using the server let say 9-10am, the server starts to crawl. webmail, smtp,pop3 is crawling. i've disable the mc afee netshield, but the problem still there. the cpu usage is only 5-10% and the RAM is less than 5%. after a week of struggling with the thing, we decided to turn back to 6.06 until now... ----- Original Message ----- From: "The AreaTech Team" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, 02 October 2003 07:42 AM Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] Webmail Performance > I feel your pain, but with us running 7.15 on a win2k amd XP2000 with > 256 pc133 ram and a single 15k rpm ultra scsi 36 gig drive, Declude > virus/junkmail and fprot, I can open up a 50 meg mailbox with 20 sub > mailboxes in a couple seconds.
