shared prcoess or one per connection?

One per connection, around 1000 connections right now.

in case of shared 256 MB is really really low

I changed the vsz_limit to 512MB and it seems better, but I'm still surprised my mailbox actually hit the memory limit since I doubt it's most used one.

Hrm... exactly when I pressed sent, dovecot started giving me more information:

master: Error: service(imap): child 22324 returned error 83 (Out of memory 
(service imap { vsz_limit=256 MB }, you
may need to increase it))

Is that why the imap processes were running out of memory or is that just 
another symptom of the same problem? How
come we never had that problem with the older version of dovecot 2.0 (sorry, i 
can't remember which one we were
running...).

Hello,

I've upgraded our servers and now dovecot seems to be running out of
memory when accessing my own mailbox (and only mine, which is in a way
pretty fortunate):

dovecot: imap(abelard-a): Error: mmap() failed with file
/vmail/a/b/abelard-a/dovecot.index.cache: Cannot allocate memory

imap(abelard-a): Fatal: pool_system_realloc(131072): Out of memory

/vmail/a/b/abelard-a/dovecot.index.cache is 224MB big and my mailbox is
72% full of 8GB.

any idea of what is happening?
