The problem is more file writes in general. Locking is implemented in an NFS-safe way, but DB writes over NFS are *extremely* slow and heavy on the network. I'd suggest even keeping 1 machine as the "master" bayes DB, do sa-learns there by hand, and copy out DBs onto the "slave" servers which do the scanning. Each "slave" has a copy of the bayes DB on their local disk, which is overwritten periodically by the master. - --j. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh CVS iD8DBQFARijNQTcbUG5Y7woRAinnAKDfl33zRco2oUPgczsf/nJ0gkc0ewCfdJeK m+xIyu0qhFWWKuWw8+Y3/zQ= =Jf/T -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
