    With 10k users, how much disk space and how many peak simultaneous imap
    connections does 10k users represent on your system?

    It's just that I imagine the number of actual users on a system isn't the
    pure bottleneck per-se, it's really some relationship between
    number-of-users (more users means more email deliveries) and
    number-of-users*percent-that-are-connected (more users that connect more
    often means more imapd processes).
