    Hello again.

    I've been trying to tweak all sorts of system configs in the last few
    days but it didnt help much.

    I changed the following options because I was getting:
    cyrus/mupdate[18200]: Server too busy, droping connection.

    mupdate_connections_max: 1024
    mupdate_workers_start: 40
    mupdate_workers_minspare: 16
    mupdate_workers_maxspare: 80
    mupdate_workers_max: 400

    with mupdate configured like that my mailboxes db is getting corrupted
    once a day. If I decrease the values it will last longer, but I'll start
    getting the Server too busy error.

    I've noticed that once I get the mmap error, the system will still run
    without spitting db errors for anywhere from a few mins to a few hours.
    Also, I never get more than one mmap error before the db becomes unnusable.

    Not sure If I mentioned this before, but after getting the mmap error I
    can no longer restart my master because ctl_cyrusdb wont be able to
    recover the db.

    What Im planning to do next is get a new server, install debian in it (
    Im using Fedora core 2) and see if I have the same poroblem.

    Regards,

    Joćo Assad
