Improving Reliability and Performance

Processor
Memory
In order to administer the product with F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft
Exchange Web Console, one of the following web browsers is required:
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later
Mozilla Firefox 2.0 or later
Opera 9.00 or later
Any other web browser supporting HTTP 1.0, SSL, javascripts and
cookies may be used as well. Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 or earlier
cannot be used to administer the product.
You can improve the system reliability and overall performance by
upgrading the following components.
If the system load is high, a fast processor on the Microsoft Exchange
Server speeds up the e-mail message processing. As Microsoft
Exchange Server handles a large amount of data, a fast processor alone
is not enough to guarantee a fast operation of F-Secure Anti-Virus for
Microsoft Exchange.
Memory consumption is directly proportional to the size of processed
mails - scanning a single mail may use memory in amounts up to three
times the size of the mail concerned. If the average size of mail messages
is big, or Microsoft Exchange Server has to process large messages
regularly, increasing the amount of physical memory increases the overall
performance.
If large messages are processed only now and then, it might be enough
to increase the size of the virtual memory. In this case, large messages
will slow the system down.
