I agree that is a lot.

Well, it's a rootserver with 8-core Xeon, 64 GB - but no flash, just a RAID
of enterprise HDDs.

Mailboxes have grown in numbers and size over time.

The next machine for this case will have the mail service on NVME.

in main.cf or in master.cf.

As a first try I will reduce the default process limit and see how that
goes.

Thanks!
