Hi all, We are developing a large scale email application - qmail as MTA and our own API for mail retrieval to end users. Both qmail and our API run on RedHAT Linux 7.1 with SMP patches.
When we run our performance tests - with mail directories stored on a local drive we get very good performance and throuput - in the ranges of 50-60 ms. When we run the tests on a NFS mounted drive (EMC storage device) - the response times drop down drastically - to the order of 2-3 seconds. Is there some NFS or network level optimization we should be doing to get a better throughput? We noticed that when we run the tests the second time - the performance is much better. The first time access to NFS mounted files and directories is very slow. Is this related to OS Swap spaces, caching etc? waiting for your reply kamesh jayachandran Enjoy being an Indyan at http://www.indya.com _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
