Albert,


We have a dual socket Intel (2.8 GHz, 8 cores), 72 GB RAM server running 
Cyrus 2.3 on
Solaris 10.  It is very happy with 50-100 POP service instances and 
5000-8000 IMAPDs
continuously in the system.
I seem to remember ZFS ARC takes all RAM it can get hold of, up to 50% 
of total RAM.

Solaris 'prstat' shows typical size of an IMAPD process to be around 75 
MB with an RSS
of 43 MB.
I recall the mailboxes.db size playing a role here. We have half a 
million mailboxes.


Cordialement,
Eric.
