It can go to 48hrs at some times.

It's just as bad on all the lists hosted on vger (especially linux-kernel,
subscribers to which apparently tripled recently when the 2.2.0-pre
kernels arrived).

The server is massively overloaded, simple as that. IMO, something which
would help a lot would be to move the vger CVS to a different server (it's
on the same machine that does the mail at the moment, and can really slow
things down when people start doing CVS updates).
