Well, isn't, as with rsync, the travel time through the filesystem (to find out what's to be sync'ed) incompressible, in which case it would take more than a few seconds on a large mailbox (I'm testing but in more complex conditions) ? Is dsync, for that matter, fastest than rsync (maybe because using dovecot-uidlist or similar) ? Besides, how about client side indexing while in this incoherent, not yet fully sync'ed state ? Wouldn't there be corruption risk ? Thanks. -- Thomas Hummel | Institut Pasteur <hum...@pasteur.fr> | Groupe Exploitation et Infrastructure
