Also another issue I had with schedule cron, was ASSP abuse and overuse of it 
to 
check itself for its own resource, CPU and memory usage. I fail to see why ASSP 
needs 
a self monitoring task. I did not see any options to disable that UNWANTED 
task. It 
seems quite unnecessary as very few programs if any monitor themselves like 
such. 
To me it says there is a problem if ASSP needs to keep such an eye on its own 
resource usage.

None the less that did cause problems, bugs outside the issues with rebuilding 
spam 
db. I cannot say I had a single good experience with the schedule cron module 
enabled/installed for ASSP to use. That definitely caused issues for me such to 
the 
point I stopped using it. After I went out of my way to make an ebuild so it 
would be 
installable on Gentoo outside of CPAN or direct install.

If ASSP needs such a monitoring task, it should like rebuildspamdb be its own 
program 
that is invoked separately of assp. But again ASSP should not really need to 
monitor 
itself for such. I did not see it taking any action based on those checks.

I can re-enable/re-install schedule cron and report back with direct issues.
