-Configurable System Limits
--------------------------
-
-Limits for auto-rejecting address creation
-..........................................
-
-A relay refuses creation of new addresses
-when the machine runs low on resources,
-but existing addresses keep working.
-
-Three ``chatmail.ini`` settings control this,
-shown here with their defaults::
-
-    max_load_1m = 5
-    min_available_memory = 200M
-    min_free_disk_space = 1G
-
- ``max_load_1m`` is the maximum 1-minute load average,
-  as reported by ``uptime``;
-  it counts processes waiting for disk I/O as well as for CPU.
-  It is deliberately not scaled by the number of CPUs
-  because I/O rather than CPU is what typically limits a relay.
-
- ``min_available_memory`` is the minimum memory available without swapping.
-
- ``min_free_disk_space`` is the minimum free disk space
-  on the file system holding the mailboxes.
-
-The defaults suit the small machine described in
-`Minimal requirements and prerequisites`_.
-
-.. note::
-
-   If you run a bigger machine,
-   raise ``max_load_1m`` after watching ``uptime`` under typical load.
-
-Rejections are logged by the ``doveauth`` service,
-so you can check whether a limit is set too tightly::
-
-    journalctl -u doveauth --grep 'registration rejected'
-
-If ``mtail_address`` is set, rejections are also counted
-in the ``rejected_registrations`` metric.
-
-
-Overall IMAP and SMTP connection limits
-.......................................
-
-Two further settings bound how many connections
-the relay accepts at all, again shown with their defaults::
-
-    max_imap_connections = 10000
-    max_smtp_connections = 1000
-
-``max_imap_connections`` becomes the Dovecot imap process limit,
-and ``max_smtp_connections`` the Postfix process limit
-on each of the submission and smtps ports.
-A single client IP may use up to a fifth of ``max_smtp_connections``.
-Each connection costs memory,
-so these limits defend the relay against running out of RAM.
-
-Unless ``imap_compress`` is enabled,
-an IMAP connection that is idle for ``imap_hibernate_timeout``
-is handed over to the ``imap-hibernate`` process
-and does not count towards ``max_imap_connections``,
-which is why a relay can serve far more IMAP clients
-than this setting suggests.
-
-If you run a large relay with 10k or 100k's of addresses,
-check current connection counts before upgrading
-and set the limits accordingly.
-
-To see how close a running relay is to these two limits,
-copy ``scripts/check-connections.sh`` from the relay repository
-onto the relay and run it there::
-
-    imap             5  ports 143,993   (max_imap_connections)
-                     5  dovecot sessions, 0 of them in an active imap process
-    submission       0  ports 465,587   (max_smtp_connections per port)
-    incoming         0  port 25         (from other relays, no chatmail.ini limit)
-
-It counts established sockets with ``ss``
-and cross-checks the IMAP number against ``doveadm who``.
-
