I did some testing with strace. Running it on CtrlClnt didn't tell me much, so I started XMail in debug through strace.
As I understand the result correctly, then XMail forks to handle the CTRL-request. The first files it opens in that fork seem reasonable: ctrl.ipmap.tab, ctrlaccounts.tab, the ctrl-logfile, a temp-file and mailusers.tab. After copying the contents of mailusers.tab into the temp-file (I think), it however start opening each user.tab-file of every single user in the system. I'm not sure why it's doing that, but I'm rather sure that it's this that is causing the delay. It ended up opening almost 16000 files. Any ideas of why it would be doing this? decker schreef: > Hey, > > >> ../CtrlClnt -s localhost -u ******* -p ********** userlist >> test.domain.tld >> > > Just a shot in the dark, is it the same when using 127.0.0.1 rather than > "localhost" ?
