-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Since I updated to 10.3, I find spamd/spamc sluggish. My mail fetching setup is: fetchmail --> postfix --> procmail --> spamc/spamd A mail is scanned, then it stops for some seconds (almost no cpu usage) then it continues. It takes around 8 seconds per single email to check. I think it is querying some of the network databases that is slow. The other detail is that it only processes two mails at a time, I mean, postfix spawns two children only: root /usr/lib/postfix/master postfix \_ qmgr -l -t unix -u postfix \_ local -t unix cer | \_ /usr/bin/procmail cer | \_ /usr/bin/procmail cer | \_ /usr/bin/spamc -s 350000 postfix \_ local -t unix cer | \_ /usr/bin/procmail cer | \_ /usr/bin/procmail cer | \_ /usr/bin/spamc -s 350000 postfix \_ pickup -l -t unix -u postfix \_ showq -t unix -u I believe this is controlled in /etc/postfix/master.cf by this line: local unix - n n - 4 local or perhaps this one: procmail unix - n n - 5 pipe flags=R user=nobody argv=/usr/bin/procmail -t -m /etc/procmailrc ${sender} ${recipient} but according to that, I should get 4 (or 5) children... so I must be missing something. My idea is that if could get more emails to be processed simultaneously (while one waits another is scanned) then throughput would be faster. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4-svn0 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHjQuntTMYHG2NR9URAl3JAKCHy0dg+J212A0Zjsy6bCum7eEyhACcC0jc 9A2qAi5Pz67sjSKVmvcm6VM= =2bqH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
