Controlling resources.

[dG]

Since configuring qmail to start up via 'svscan' and 'supervise', I have
noticed what seems to be a slowdown on the server.  When checking the stats
I see that 'supervise' is taking up, on average 3%-4% of the processor time
with spikes up to 8%.  Would someone point me in a direction that will
explain to me how I limit the system resources a program uses.

Thanks,

David
