I installed and tested the RAMDisk mentioned in an earlier thread with disappointing results. I configured the RAMDisk to hold the POST spool directory. While I did see a slight performance increase for creating files with CFX_iMSMail, the net improvement in my overall sending speed was marginal. Also, after sending about 1 million emails my server locked-up with some odd memory related errors in the event log. I have removed the RAMDisk from my server.
I have tried several approaches now to increase the rate at which iMS POST will send emails. No matter what I try, it seems like 23K-24K per hour is the limit. We would like to double this rate to around 50K/hour. Has anyone achieved this speed from a single server? If so, how? Note that we send unique emails that average about 15KB in size. We have no bandwidth restrictions. We have the full enterprise version (1024 threads).
Were you logging to RAM as well? I don't have any specific thoughts on this, I'm presumably entering this late and you've addressed any other server-related performance issues.
