[Declude.JunkMail] Proc directory backlogging from time to time

2006-10-30 Thread Panda Consulting S.A. Luis Alberto Arango



From 
time to time our PROC directoryis backlogging emails.. We process about 
60K to 80 K every day. And from time to time I found between 8K to 10K in our 
PROC. It seems to be an spammer flood, but my server is not able to manage it 
fast enough to empty the directory.

We use 
Declude (version 4.3.7), sniffer latest engine, inv-urbland 
f-prot

When 
checking at the task manager I see quite a few (8 or 10) sniffer processes 
running at the same time as well as f-prot and inv-urbl processes, but not fast 
enough to empty the proc directory.

The 
PROCESSES directive seems to not work. I don't know how to speed up the 
processes unless I remove sniffer, inv-urbland f-prot.

I run 
a box with XEON Double Core 2.8 GHz, and 2.00GB of RAM running Windows 
2003 server.

I am 
running Smartermail 3.3.2439

Any 
suggestions? ideas? on how to prevent backlogging in the PROC 
directory?

Luis,

Email me offlist at support [at] 
invariantsystems.com and I will help you tweak up invURIBL and your declude 
configuration to help with this situation. You have a fast enough machine 
that should easily handle 150K+ messages a day easy.

Are you running sniffer in the persistent mode? That will lighten the
load quite a bit, we are doing 180K a day w the exact same setup you
are.

Thank you both for your help and 
comments.

Yes I am running snifferin a persistent mode. It is a 
relief to hear that you are handling 180K with same setup.. 

I have found some strange issues within the server and they 
don't seem to be related to Declude, smartermail, etc. Mostly something related 
with folders, files and memory. Before I jump into conclusions I am just testing 
some things and report back to the forum.

So far after a fresh restart of the box Proc directory went 
back to normal and so far so good.

Meanwhile I will accept Darrell's offer and email him off 
the list. Thank you very muchh Darrel.

Regards

Luis
