Subject: [sup-talk] [PATCH] maildir speedups
Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2008 14:50:52 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <f96e0240804301150w5e07823cuf3b16fc7dffa759e@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi All,
The attached small patch improves maildir performance by making the
assumption that nothing will be modifying the underlying files
themselves. It uses the mtimes of cur/ and new/ to mark whether or
not to poll files in the directory. This sees the initial poll be a
somewhat slow process (nfs for me again), but subsequent polls are
much faster. I'm caching the mtimes in sources.yaml too, but
currently this doesn't save anything across loads of sup since the
id's (and id -> fn map) are not cached across restarts.
I hope you find this useful.
-Ben
