The tests which I performed on Jabber clearly showed that it slows down which is definitely not acceptable in real-life situations . Jabber has to be more scalable than it is now . Any Thoughts and Ideas ?

It may be worth giving an option to either disable this all together, or preferably on a per-user basis.  I'm thinking about something like a print server or syslog setup where you want high speed at _all_ times often from a single "user". Otherwise, sounds like a good idea!  Stop those id10t spammers. -- Bron ( and accidents with broken clients too... ) _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list jdev@jabber.org <A href="http://mailman.jabber.org/listinfo/jdev">http://mailman.jabber.org/listinfo/jdev</A></BLOCKQUOTE></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
