My sentiments exactly. Well said.

I just can't figure out the logic behind all the CPU consumption and why certain process parameters are suspected to have detrimental effects. Please verify my thinking: A machine that needs to process a given amount of mail will require a certain number of instructions, which are reflected in the total CPU usage. If several messages come in almost simultaneously, then I can either process them right away using parallel processes, causing a short spike in CPU use - or I can process them one by one, using up the same CPU time over time and causing a few seconds delay in mail delivery. Either way, the overall CPU consumption should be the same - just distributed differently. So - if the above is true, how do I explain the apparent inconsistency where users report that the CPU consumption is considerable higher than in the prior version? How can the various "process" settings make any difference - at worst it should spike quickly and then be idle? If the old Declude handled the amount of mail with moderate CPU use and without causing noticeable delays in mail delivery to the users - then I can't see how the same outcome suddenly should require x times the CPU resources, no matter how inefficient the process settings are? What is spending all this other CPU time on? Looping, looking for directory content?

I'll try WAITFORMAIL in just a bit. I also noticed in my spool folder I have a new folder called "s" that appeared with the time stamp of the new proc install. There is nothing in it; just a blank folder. I deleted it.
