           Summary: Spamc/d should log memory and message-id after
                    processing
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P3
         Component: spamc/spamd
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


There is great discussion at the moment about spamd children seemingly still 
growing out of control.  Certainly this has been a problem throught the 3.0x 
release cycle.  It never seems possible to obtain any informaiton to duplicate 
the problem, so not much can be done about it.

Spamd should log its memory size and the message-id of the message just 
processed at the completion of processing messages.  Obviously this shoudl 
include the spamd child id, so the message stream through a particulr errant 
child can be reconstructed accurately.

The child should ALSO log when it does anything unusual such as awl or bayes 
processing, logging the fact that it did it, and logging the memory size at the 
end of the action.  This would make it obvious if the growth were related to 
these actions rather than normal mail processing.

Even if my other suggestion (that the child die if it gets fat) is implemented, 
this should be implemented also, so that the reasons for obesity can be 
determined.
