I had to use the attached patch (on top of the above) to avoid erroring |
33 |
out during compile. FYI. |
34 |
|
35 |
The patch behaves as expected. postfix start waits for master to |
36 |
initialize before returning with the correct return code. |
37 |
|
38 |
There is no noticeable delay during startup with a correct |
39 |
configuration. Differences are within margin of error. |
40 |
|
41 |
There is less incentive to start master directly. |

Thanks again. |
