'vmpfw' state

[Michael Riexinger]

Hi, 

i have a imap server with cyrus running under FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE. There 
are around 25000 mailboxes (around 30gb small mails). When starting 
cyrus, the lmtpd is in vmpfw state for around 15 minutes and consumes 
very much cpu and memory. When using truss, i see a lseek loop. What 
exactly is the vmpfw state and how can i accelerate that thing?


Mit herzlichen Grüssen aus Frankfurt am Main,
