Hello all,
I have the following:
Debian Sarge 3.1
Amavisd-new 2.3.3 (From source, not from Debian)
postfix 2.1.5-9
clamav 0.84-2.sarge.7
spamassassin 3.0.3-2
The issue I'm having is that Amavisd-new appears to be a killer on my
RAM/SWAP. I expect it to be a memory hungry SOB but lately the
process is constantly chewing on 300MB of SWAP. I don't see any
errors or anything and don't think that this is "faulty operation"
necessarily.. but I was wondering if this is the norm or if there
are advanced settings I could use to limit SWAP usage. I had 512MB
RAM and thought doubling that would help. However, I have the same
amount of MEMORY/SWAP usage now with 1024MB installed.
This is *not* a high traffic email server... I'm only processing
maybe 100 emails a day at tops.
Thanks for your help.
