Nikos, How would one 'disable all DLRs from your configuration'? I am curious as to this option. I just went through the user manual, configure.in file and dlr_init.c and can see no way to turn off dlr storage. For my particular application, I am happy with not reporting on delivery and if there is a significant performance gain, I am curious to research turning it off.
