[horde] Large horde installs

[Wang, Yu]

We have about 15k active users and we use NFS mount. No problem. Had problems with IMAP authentication when concurrent users reach over one hundred later found it's caused by our very old IMAP. Will see if that got improved when new IMAP put in place.

BTW, we run horde on an Intel 4x700cpu, 4GBRAM server.

I'm exploring the use of horde/imp/etc for a large group of Realtors
(over 10k) and would love any advice other large scale users might
have before I select the hardware and configuration of the system.

I'll be running it on FreeBSD 4.9 boxen.  I'm thinking of having one
box be the RAID fileserver (vinum) and then the mail machines
(sendmail/imapd/popd/spamassassin) and web/horde machines connecting
to the file server via NFS.

A few questions I have are:

1) what part of the system will have the most load?

2) will NFS hold up in production?

3) what other things should I worry about?

Thanks,

Joe Hamelin
