Im again in a point that I just dont know where to look for problems 
anymore. System resources seems to be fine, yet Im getting the dreaded 
"Cannot allocate memory" IOERROR .

free output:
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       2074264    1805272     268992          0      94500    1331860
-/+ buffers/cache:     378912    1695352
Swap:      2096472          0    2096472

My ulimit seems to be configured correctly.

Since I reduced the mupdate_workers options I've been getting lots of 
"cyrus/mupdate[22343]: Server too busy, droping connection."  , which is 
deferring lots of e-mails on the postfix server.

Any new advices ?
