make sure you are running either the stable version of vpopmail or the latest dev
version as I found that vdelivermail would consume
a 450 Mhz Xeon at 1 concurrent local delivery with vpopmail 4.10.23. There have been
some performance improvments to vdelivermail
since then. Im running 4.10.28 and don't have the problem, in fact vdelivermail
consumes no noticable CPU with 4.10.28. Also you
need to find out which process is consuming the CPU. Try using top or turning on
process accounting for you O/S. You might alo
want to try running qmail-mrtg to see exactly how many requests qmail is handling.
