Happy weekend everybody, I noticed a problem that started this morning, where postfix was timing out whilst talking with the spamass-milter. Looking further into this, I see that sometimes spamd PIDs still at 100%. Its been running the milter on it for many months.
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 20024 spamd 30 10 398m 290m 3028 R 101 1.6 3:41.48 spamd 20023 spamd 30 10 401m 293m 3040 R 99 1.6 3:52.98 spamd /usr/sbin/spamd --create-prefs -x -q --max-children 3 --sql-config --nouser-config --username spamd --helper-home-dir -s /var/log/spamd.log --virtual-config-dir=/users/%d/%u -d --pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid There are also two 'spamd childs' running. I managed to find the message in the SA logs: Sun Mar 20 11:09:59 2011 [17237] info: spamd: result: . 0 - TIME_LIMIT_EXCEEDED scantime=301.4,size=4524,user=junk4,uid=5002,required_score=6.0,rhost=localhost,raddr=127.0.0.1,rport=53919,mid=<4d85d121.5020...@fastmail.net>,autolearn=unavailable,shortcircuit=no Sun Mar 20 11:16:31 2011 [17237] info: spamd: result: . 0 - TIME_LIMIT_EXCEEDED scantime=300.8,size=4524,user=junk4,uid=5002,required_score=6.0,rhost=localhost,raddr=127.0.0.1,rport=42473,mid=<4d85d121.5020...@fastmail.net>,autolearn=unavailable,shortcircuit=no Sun Mar 20 12:53:01 2011 [17237] info: spamd: result: . 0 - TIME_LIMIT_EXCEEDED scantime=300.6,size=4956,user=junk4,uid=5002,required_score=6.0,rhost=localhost,raddr=127.0.0.1,rport=40864,mid=<4d85e695.7060...@joesalu.com>,autolearn=unavailable,shortcircuit=no Any ideas where I should start to look?
