A feature that might be useful is configuration file pre-compilation. Since exim reads and processes its config file so often (please correct me if I'm wrong), it could be a worth- while performance enhancement. First step would be to profile process startup.
Any comments on whether this could be worth the effort? Is there any data out there that shows config file processing performance profiles? Alternatively, would it be possible for a listening daemon to share its configuration memory with its child processes? Is the code amenable to either modifi- cation? -dub -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
