The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[David Verdin <address@concealed>]

Hi,
Great to read that you solved your problem.
Indeed, Sympa needs to read lists configuration regularly. If the NFS 
server doesn't respond quick enough, it can be a problem.
However, you can use the binary configuration files. These bianry 
versions can be read quicker than the plain text versions. It improves 
the performances.

Another thing that will improve performance in the future is the moving 
of list config files to the database. we received a contribution that 
allows this feature. It will probably be a very good alternative to NFS.

I didn't heard of the SErveName directive problem. I added it to the 
Sympa FAQ about performances. It looks like a good opportunity to remind 
you of this page URL: https://www.sympa.org/faq/performances

Regards,

David
