This is a 2 phase question...
1. How much ( if at all ) is qpopper -vs- ipop3d ?
2. Does the size of the mail file ( pop3 file for a user ) dramatically
effect the cpu useage when someone is checking for new mail ?
I have noticed since we are getting many email checks from our pop3
users that our server cpu useage is going up, and particularly when
someone is leaving the email on the server, and queries the file for
anything new within the file. ie... you pick up 100 messages in the am,
10 more are delivered by 12:01pm, then at 12:02 you pick up the new 10,
but this sequential process seems to have to go through the entire 100
mesage to check if each one is new or not until finally finding the last
10 that are missing.
Thanks !
