Hi,
Does anyone have some tips on getting peak performance out of mass
mailings with qmail.
We regularly send out newsletters to over 500,000 email address's on
a weekly/fortnightly basis.
I've looked through the archives and there are some excellent tips
but I'm still hoping to push it further as a full mailout takes
nearly a day.
My current setup is qmail-1.03 with Russell Nelson's big-todo patch
conf-split is set to 47
concurrencyremote is set to 240
We have written a simple perl script that takes the whole mailout and
pipes it directly to qmail-inject
The mailout flies with the concurrencyremote being hit after the pipe
to qmail-inject is closed but it takes a long long long time for the
qmail-inject process to finish.
Does anyone have any tips on how to analyse the performance
bottle-necks .. disk / bandwidth etc ( this is a redhat linux 6.1
box) or tips on a better way of doing this.
Regards,
Simon E.
