But the big killer is scaleability and handling multiple servers, which is why some sort of front end like IMAPProxy are attractive.

I've heard that imapproxy isn't all that useful with Dovecot once auth cache is enabled and set large enough. It'll then just basically replace Dovecot's process fork(s) with the overhead of its own.


Oops, good point, I'd forgotten about that whole discussion from a few months ago.

So the only real benefit to keeping cached connections would be in saving the TCP overhead, I guess...
