We’re excited to announce the release of Stalwart v0.12, a significant milestone that evolves Stalwart from a powerful mail server into a complete, integrated communication and collaboration platform. This release delivers one of the most anticipated features from our community: native support for calendars, contacts, and file storage—all built directly into the server, with no need for third-party integrations.
How do I use those features? I just upgraded to the latest version.

I had to give up on stalwart because on 4gb ram dual core with mechanical HDD the performance for a single account domain was abysmal and after some support back and forth there was no solution.
On the same hardware the good old postfix+dovecot just handles perfectly with 90% spare capacity
Sorry guys, maybe it was time to optimize it a bit before adding more features?

It’s a 0.x release. It makes sense building the intended features first before optimizing heavily. There’s no point having an optimized data structure that then falls flat once you need to add new features that brings new requirements to the data structure.
Once they label it 1.x (i.e. feature complete and production ready) I would expect it to be optimized. If it isn’t, criticism is warranted.

Stalwart probably aims a bigger infra than mine, i think that is the point.

Are we sure they are using semantic versioning?

That’s probably because you were using RocksDB as a backend, which does not work well on mechanical HDDs. Try using PostgreSQL instead.

I did, we discussed this on an issue and a github discussion. It was still too slow and saturating my low spec machine, no matter which backends I tried to use.
Probably my hardware is just too underpowered.

They have improved performance in this release, although judging from their release notes it is targeting larger infra, so I don’t believe these improvements would benefit your setup. Still, good news for software this new.
