Scalix Forums

Hello,

I have installed a scalix server in the newest version. everything is running well. To try the features i only configured three mailboxes. the mail are fetched by fetchmail as an cronjob.
the time is every 5 minutes.

Now my question:
- What happends if i do this with 50 users? Will it work? Whats with the performance?
- What happends if a cron job is still running?

Kind regards
Marco

There's no way to predict performance, it depends too much on other factors (how big is each mailbox? Are there linespeed issues?)

The best is to test this and measure the results. 5 mins will be too short, 15 or even 20/30 may be more realistic. You need to check for running a fetchmail before kicking off a new one in your scripts, I have had issues with that some time back.
