Hello,
We recently started having problems on a few servers with spamd
processes starting to hog RAM (3G++ per child) and we are noting some
timeouts in the logs. as well, we are seeing this msg

This alarm__ignore seems to be a function in Timeout.pm
this is a relatively old install, SA 3.3.1 on Centos6 (stock RPMs)
Any tips on how to troubleshoot the essence or root of this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Chris
