cpu utilization

[Robin M.]

Is there any way to set the nice value of MailScanner processes. I notice
that when it runs top reports that MailScanner uses 99% of the cpu. I have
a small mailserver which only does about 2000 messages per 24 hours. I
currently have set the
Queue Scan Interval = 60
Max Children = 4

The box is a powerful dual Xeon 3gigs RAM but has a very busy
mod_perl/mysql website on it as well
