That is probably because you have more gray matter ( gray matter in
this case equates to long years of lived experience + testing +
breaking things then wash+rinse+repeat till you finally fix things.. )

I still *cringe* when I have to fire up qemu.. hopefully someday I
will feel comfortable but right now every single time I do this I
actually do PRAY ! ( Seriously I kneel then PRAY ! yes dat bad.. )

Len, if I may please I am setting up a few servers for a good friend
and they are running Zimbra Servers and Zimbra has it's own bundled
Apache so I do not see the usual /var/www root and the log files are
huge. Seriously huge. Any suggestions on how best to tweak for
performance ?

I also see free -m -l -t telling me it is hogging memory like
anything. Is this a Zimbra issue or ? Once again how best to resolve ?

The logs are purged daily so am guesing teh amount of transactions
through Zimbra is causing the weight ?

This is my first exposure to Zimbra and Servers actually so please
have mercy and be gentle.

Thanks - Aruna
