Loren, How to flush the database?
But I don't see how they can cause the problem - why they scan the email in a few seconds, then jump up into the regions of 300 seconds?
Also, spamassassin is already set to run a maximum of 5 childs. Also, swap hasn't been used at all since last server restart, so can't be this.
Thanks very much for your help! Regards - Piers Loren Wilton wrote:
Possibly SA is trying to do a Bayes or Awl expire while processing a message, and that can take considerable time, especially if your Bayes or Awl databases have gotten very large. Possibly you are running too many children for the ram you have, and have gone into thrashing. Loren
