I concur. mail load is ideally suited for dividing up
amongst multiple machines (with then multiple i/o busses, etc. etc.).
I far prefer this method to the one big machine method.

I'm late to the game... but why not split the load over a number
of servers? Using carp for reduncancy, rdr/round-robin and/or hash,
you should be able to spread the load some.

Theo asked a while ago to please take this off list, so I'd appreciate if
anyone who has remarks because of my recent thread to address me off list.
I'd like to respect his request.
Thank you to those who helped me today.

That said, since you think IPF is causing problems, have your tried
disabling IPF and running either ipfilter or PF (or doing the filtering on
a dedicated firewall box)?

Yep, I will
I was honoring that very much :) My main discussion was whether or not I
should switch to OpenBSD or not, which is why it started on this list.
Sorry for any inconvenence.

What's wrong with FreeBSD 4.11? You said it's stable for you. OpenBSD is
going to be a big change for you on short notice with little testing.
Everyone says the 4.x branch is much more stable than the 5.x branch
anyway.
It is, but its unsupported. If I go back to 4.11, within 6 months I would
To avoid making CLM's, you should realise these lists are archived indefinitely.
You're right :) He'll know I was being very sarcastic with that respect.
I hope. I'll be careful.
If things are crashing twice a day and you believe SMP is the culprit,
disable it to get your immediate problem

Either, I think in general SMP is tough to get stable. People with
more experience will hopefully reply and explain in more detail. For
now I, personally, would disable smp on freebsd just to keep it
stable.
I just dont know if this will keep it stable or not. Others are reporting

Just spoke with the boss. My boss really "wants to run SMP". He's an
ill-informed business man and thinks that a single 3 ghz with 4 gb RAM
couldn't handle our mail server, which I believe it would have no problems
at all doing. 10,000 users isn't that many.
Either way, if hes set on SMP, t
