Hi there,
I am new on perdition, and I got this statement in paper about perdition:
"The size of these deployments range from 2,500 to in excess of 250,000
accounts with up to 8 real-servers"
Its mean perdition only support to 8 real servers ? Am I right ?
In my email system, we have about 40K users and split to 15 servers. Is
there any detail information about the maximum real servers will be
supported by perdition ?
What will happened if we have more than 8 real servers that will be access
using Perdition proxy ?
Thanks in advance.
Regard

I'm not a Perdition guru when it comes to source-code, but I've happily used
it since 2003 or so in around 100 000 email-accounts environment. We are using
LDAP for account information, and frankly I don't know why Perdition would
care if there are more than 8 real servers. All that perdition does is that it
proxies the traffic between servers, and 8 servers is not that much...
I think the most important thing is that the lookup method for determining the
backend server is the key to high performance.

No, it means that the largest known actual deployment uses 8 real servers.
The server location can be arbitrary determined from an ldap lookup. In
that case there's no possible way that any instance of a perdition process
could even know how many real servers there are. If it can't know, then it
can't possibly care.
