Package: libmilter1 Version: 8.14.1-9 Severity: wishlist
According to the dkim-milter README (which requires libmilter to work), the key to building a dkim-filter binary built for high performance environments is to build libmilter to use poll() rather than select(), the reason is poll() is able to handle higher descriptors than select() is on some systems. During high loads where lots of descriptors can be in simultaneous use, this can become crucial. This is accomplished by modifying the sendmail build file (devtools/Site/site.config.m4) to contain this: dnl # use poll() instead of select() in libmilter APPENDDEF(`confENVDEF', `-DSM_CONF_POLL=1')dnl Thanks, micah -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-2-vserver-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libmilter1 depends on: ii libc6 2.6.1-5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries libmilter1 recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
