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

When I looked at top though I find this is typical:<BR>

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<BR>

Thanks,<BR>
