[Fwd: RE: Spamassassin Timeouts]

[Golden, James]

Thanks for that.  I am thinking it may be more of a hardware issue.  My
digs were quick

Worst:
real    0m0.324s
user    0m0.010s
sys     0m0.020s


Best:
real    0m0.090s
user    0m0.020s
sys     0m0.000s

When I looked at top though I find this is typical:

11:47:08  up 8 days,  8:27,  1 user,  load average: 7.78, 6.86, 6.88
102 processes: 94 sleeping, 4 running, 4 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU states:  cpu    user    nice  system    irq  softirq  iowait    idle
           total  131.8%    0.0%   31.4%   0.0%     0.0%    0.0%   36.4%
           cpu00   55.7%    0.0%   15.6%   0.0%     0.0%    0.0%   28.5%
           cpu01   76.1%    0.0%   15.8%   0.0%     0.0%    0.0%    8.0%
Mem:  2068248k av, 1857084k used,  211164k free,       0k shrd,  291000k
buff
       896772k active,             775948k inactive
Swap: 1020088k av,  158976k used,  861112k free                  616232k
cached

Any recommendations?  Should I cut back on some network tests?  I have
been very happy with the setup lately as it has been catching a LOT more
spam that it was a week ago.  I have 8 Mailscanner processes allowed to
run at a time

Thanks,

James
