Hi Jaques,
Ah yes, I remember reading those. I don't think you have too much to
worry about in 2011 though. Those posts were from around 2008 when GFS
(The original implementation) didn't scale well for large mailboxes. It
was also around the time that GFS2 wasn't stable for production
environments. As far as I know, GFS2 works much better now. I've also
heard some good things about OCFS2.
That said, I have no experience in this area. It's just what I'm
observing from what people are telling me on this and the dovecot lists
Cheers
Jonathan

After some reading:
- GFS and maildir work bad together
- NFS and maildir are not that good, NFS and postfix have some issues
but should be OK.
Where did you read that GFS worked badly with maildir? I'd be interested to
read into this
Thanks
