Uh - well THAT is good information.

So it is your sense that now they are ready to take on customers with
dual-processor Dells without Declude falling asleep?

That means I can finally upgrade (thanks to your persistence).

Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Wondering about Declude 3.x


Matt,

I have been running 3.0.5.7 on a single and multi proc machine both of which

process over 100K messages a day with one getting close to 150K with no 
issues.  Everything is processing fine.  Under 3.0.5.7 I am not seeing the 
country and mailfrom issue I seen in the 3.0.5.5 version.  Also, the sleep 
issue I seen in earlier versions does not occur in 3.0.5.7.

Depending on your volume you will need to tweak the settings for how the 
threads operate.  If you have a bursty flow and a high thread count you can 
see pretty good prolonged cpu spikes because you will/could have a bunch of 
external processes launched at the exact same time.  Under the old versions 
<2.x this was not an issue since processes were launched as the volume came 
in balanced over time - as you know with 3.x it batches processes messages 
for the most part.  With some tweaking you can mitigate it fairly well.
