Re: Multi-thread cyrus delayed forking of imapd processes after connecting to master listener

I set maxforkrate=100 to make to raise it well above a default. 100 a 
second is quite a lot and logs show I am no where near that many 
connections.

I am not sure if I can define the maxforkrate parameter so that it is 
unlimited (for testing) so I just set it at a number well above what I 
see the server trying to do.

I tried prefork and found it did not help the problem, most of the 
prefork sessions also had the wait condition.
