I just upgraded to sqwebmail 2.1.1 from a pretty old version (August 2000
or maybe even earlier) and it "feels" a lot slower. Unfortunately I have
deleted the old version already so I can't test it side by side, but a
few users have already noted the same (they really loved sqwebmail before
because it was VERY snappy). It seems that between the time I hit a button
(for example, the right arrow to go to the next msg) and the time anything
is displayed, it takes 3-5 seconds. It feels like there is perhaps too
much buffering going on at the server end, or that there is an initial 2
seconds delay before anything happens? Note that I have not changed
anything else on this system. Also, what is a good way to test sqwebmail
interactively from a shell? One of the CGI-debug programs I've seen on
the Net? Thanks!

how I run configure:
./configure --enable-mimetypes=/usr/local/etc --enable-webpass=no
--enable-imageurl=/images --enable-cgibindir=/usr/local/www/cgi-bin
--enable-imagedir=/usr/local/www/images --with-authpwd --with-cachedir
--without-authpam
# tried it with PAM and same difference.
http:
thttpd, but I will try Apache as soon as I can get to it.
OS/Hardware:
FreeBSD 3.5, Pentium II 450, 128M RAM, on an SCSI<->SCSI RAID controller.
VERY lightly loaded. 98-100% idle most of the time, lots of memory
free, no swapping at all.
dns:
Just a /etc/resolv.conf pointing to a couple of FreeBSD bind servers.
browsers:
IE 5.5 and Netscape 6 - same thing.
