> You don't need clustering for 100k subs, really. brian this is depends how aggressive your clients reading and sending their emails *simulteneously* plus how big per email size per se. example if you have 1 million subscribers but you have only 20 dial-up lines to access your email service, of course one email server will do. :-> usually email service bottleneck is disk i/o. busy disk i/o will affect others i/o like network i/o and memory i/o for example or even disk i/o itself (blocking reads or blocking writes which causes pendings and delays)... with this scenario, equal load distribution clustering (or single-image cluster but not advisable) is your answer here. fooler. _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
