Even using threads, those sorts of numbers will cause tremendous context switching issues.
50000 mails per day is not the same as 50000 all at once. If a mail takes one second in the system, 50000 is only two per second if evenly distributed throughout the day (which it won't be, I know). What is your peak? | [reply] |
It is like this
Users 9000
Mail box 9000
mail/box 2000
Total mails per year--- 18000000
Per Day 49315.06849 = (18000000/365)
Uniform Distribution/sec 1.712328767 (ie mail per sec)
