Heavey Server load

[Nathan Johanson]

Yep, I had the same ~20 sec delays on an otherwise quick server. Turned out to be the now defunct OSIRUSOFT rbl that was the culprit. Make sure you disable this in your MailScanner.conf as well as in SpamAssassin. See earlier threads regarding this issue.

If it's not this particular rbl, I suspect it is one of the others that's causing the delays.

	Hello everybody!
	I've seen a huge increase in load on our mailhubs since yesterday
	morning at around 10 am BST. I've narrowed it down to the network tests
	(rbl's dcc razor etc) causing SA to really slow up and my queues have
	been building ever since (we've gone from about 2 sec permessge to over
	20 sec). Now I've turned off all network tests (haven't had a chance to
	work out which one(s) were causing the prob) things seem to be OK and
	MAiilScanner is flying thru them.
	
	Has anyone else seen this?
	
	Dan
