Not sure that there is a method for this.
I've got 2 servers which work as a mini mail cluster, each handles about 100
to 150 mails per min and 50 to 100 pop/Imap logins per min, all working
using mysql for routing and auth. Each server acts as a Mysql slave from a
master server which handles the inserts/edits for each customers records.
POP/Imap is from Dovecot.
Loads are normally 0.2 to 0.5 for Celleron 2.8, 512mb ram on single IDE
drives.
