RE: Zimbra BES load testing

["Rasim Duric" <rduric@uoguelph.ca>]

We have been running ~60 users on one server (HP380-G6). After some
initial difficulties it has been stable for the last couple on months. We
also have a BES running ~40 users. Our experience is: fewer users more
stability. I wouldn't go over 60 though.
