Yes, you're right - I will try and get a test server setup. It's interesting that you are not seeing the same effect - how did you test your servers? It should be noted that the spikes are very short, but if you repeatedly issue RCPT TO: commands (20 in my Perl script) then the load can stay up at 100% for the duration of the commands. > This is irregular behavior, to say the > least.

Perhaps I might see a different reaction on the test server, as it won't be under any load. -- Jon Miles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cybah on IRC(net) To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
