Yes, postmark operates on the same file set. I used the following postmark settings: set number 3 set transactions 400 set size 1500 20 which uses a set of 30,000 files, and does a 4,000,000 transactions them (random mix of various operations), and size between 1,500 and 200,000

FYI: On hub.freebsd.org (the freebsd mailing list server), if we activate softupdates on the disk containing the postfix spool, the machine reboots (silently if I recall correctly) within 5 minutes of postfix starting up. This is a much smaller system of course, with smaller memory and filesyste

Well, in general I would not mess with max_softdeps - softupdates gets very inefficient if it hits its limits. I think you may have found a flaw in the code, though. Softupdates reschedules its vnode sync whenever it does something to the vnode. Postmark must be operating on the
