Zmailer and large alias files
Does anyone know of any performance issues regarding using very large
aliases files? Is there a point where performance of the router (either
because of slow name lookups, excessive memory resources, etc) becomes a
serious bottleneck?
On a project I am working on, the easiest method to do what we want to
do is to have an aliases file that contains between 50K and 100K entries.
If this is a problem with the standard "newaliases" command (that is, an
ordered list), how hard is it to use a different file format? It seems
like it would be as simple as changing the relation line in aliases.cf,
but I was wondering if there were any snags in that plan.
Thanks in advance.
