This could be caused by a DNS bottleneck. I would recommend you setup a caching-only nameserver on your Mailman box and see if that helps. Remember to modify /etc/resolv.conf to add a line at the top:
nameserver 127.0.0.1 Mike -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Andrew Falgout Sent: Saturday, August 23, 2003 6:51 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Mailman-Users] Mailman / Sendmail horribly slow performance..suggestions please?!? I'm currently running mailman-2.0.13-1 eith sendmail-8.11.6-25.72. Posts are processed very fast, but delivery is more than slow. It takes 1-2 minutes per post to delivery mail. Evaluating what is going on in the queue is a little more than cumbersome. Over the course of 3-4 days mails have been piling up in the qfiles directory to the tune of 4000 mails and waiting. There are mails 3 days old waiting to go out. I'm looking for ways to evaluate what is in the queue, why it's in the queue, and how to tell qrunner to report more information on what it's thinking. Like perhaps the msgid of the email it's trying to process at this time. -- Thank You, Andrew -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+--+-+-+-+-+- - Andrew Wilson Falgout (RHCE) Linux, E Pluribus UNIX! - - Systems Admin II, TIU Office: (601) 266-5603 - - University of Southern Mississippi - - Fax: (601) 266-6788 - -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ This message was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/mike%40camaross.net ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ This message was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
