Hi there,
are there some maintenance considerations I should keep in mind when
using spamd. It is taking forever to start? What could cause that?
Also I just killed off two spamd processes that were running at 100%
cpu. What would cause this issue? How can I use the logs or other
diagnostics to figure out root cause?
generic: ram, cpu, disk. make sure you arn't swapping, tmp dirs on nfs?
don't do that, dns:? run a local caching dns server.
specific: if low on ram (lots of swapping), lower number of spamd processes.
try using compiled rules. sares rules? depricated, private rules? take
them out for now.
perl versions? update modules?
