<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=469581608-28042009>I have a P4 3GHz
server running MailScanner 4.75.11 that has has been working fine, but over the
last few days it has taken to slowing down dramatically and the CPU load
hits 13+</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=469581608-28042009>Admittedly the
server could do with a bit more RAM (it has 768MB), but it has worked fine for
several years and the load is very small (<300 emails a
day).</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=469581608-28042009>A quick look at htop
shows that the bitdefender update process seems to run 'forever' and eats up
>500MB and then the server goes into swap city and almost grinds to a
halt.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=469581608-28042009>The upgrade from
4.69.? happened around the same time as the slow down so has something changed
that might have caused this? I guess something may have just tipped the server
over a critical RAM requirement so I am going to fit some more (1.5GB) but
any other thoughts appreciated as other servers upgraded at the same time
(fitted with more RAM) have not experienced the slow down.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
