I guess that this persistence might lead to some load imbalance. With
the persistence feature, all the connections from the same IP address
will be scheduled to the same server, before the persistent template
expires. So, maybe there are many users behind one IP address (a NAT
router) accessing your last server.
BTW, for the imap/pop service, maybe you don't need to use the persistent
feature.
