hi

We are using the following config

RedHat Linux [512MB RAM, dual processor]
MailScanner 4.41.3
SA 3.0.3
ClamAV 0.85.1

Our load average is always above 1 :-( Usually 3-6 :-( When I do 'top' I see MailScanner using anwywhere from 10-99% of CPU. 

We get about 10k emails per day.

How do I detect what could be going wrong?
