With multiple postfix instance, you can easily separate set of configurations but keep some processes eg filters commonly.
This Postfix technology is very helpful for ISP/ASP mode. So if you define that each instance using different domains and different behaviors (eg mass mailing for one outgoing mail for other...) you did not need that one instance take all cpu it needs against other instances. That why i ask this question. Many thanks all, il will try to find if Linux Ubuntu/Debian accept a way to bind a process (with all its child processes) to a specific CPU.
