I'm hoping that someone on the list can help me sort out what I hope I'm doing wrong. Our group seems to be devoting a lot of time and heartache to running dbmail for our user base. Granted a lot seems to be database related.
So if there is anyone on the list that is using dbmail 2.0 with PostgreSQL (8.x) with 5k+ users, and a data set of around 20G would you contact me off list if you like. The items I really interested in: - How/if you backup or replicate your database - How you deal with vacuum's (mine seem to take forever) - How/if you deal with a vacuum FULL. - What kind of schedule you use for dbmail-util - The number of connections you have from dbmail and what kind of load that produces. - What kind of "bad things" happen to DBMail when your database load gets rather high. I know a lot of my questions will be PostgreSQL related, and not DBMail related, but I'm hoping to find someone in the same type of setup like I have to lower the interpolation that may have to be done. I was using slony1 to replicate my database, but that was using excessive disk space in the database and eating up a lot of memory. If I don't run with Slony1, then it seems everything works great, but I'm trying to plan for a free webmail type site that may greatly grow in size. Thanks. -- David A.
