Sylvain, An update on lists: We moved the exim and mailman queues to a separate SCSI array last night (we're lucky to have had one donated recently). This has greatly improved the situation, as there is not so much contention for disk between the various exim and mailman processes. There are about 92,000 messages in exim's queue - mailman was aided greatly by the disk upgrade, so its outbound queue is finally empty of backlog. We hope that over the next 24-48 hours all the messages in the backlog will be delivered. We are also seeing a major increase in overall Mailman performance, so list delivery times should improve considerably in the future. -Justin -- Justin Baugh (baughj at gnu dot org) Systems Administrator Free Software Foundation ----- End forwarded message -----
