That would definitely contribute to slow processing, but the EASYNET lists have been dead for a long, long time.
If you still want to use the data they held, check out the much more reliable tests here, which also host the legacy lists for EASYNET: http://www.njabl.org/ You might also want to look for Scott Fisher's recent posts on two Declude users's sites that track how well various RBLs they use are performing and adopt some of those good ones. Scott also included a well-known Internet page where somebody compares the effectiveness of various lists (it goes back quite a while).

Just in case this helps anyone else: I've done some digging and noticed that the easynet.nl tests don't seem to resolve (blackholes.easynet.nl, dynablock.easynet.nl, proxies.blackholes.easynet.nl) and after removing those tests it seemed to work much better. Though I am taking the time to optimize our system a bit better so it can handle this type of thing better in the future. Not sure if this would have related the problems Darrell mentioned, since I didn't find any other symptoms of that problem here (but that problem seems limited to 2.0.6). ::James Nelson James Nelson wrote: > I've noticed the same problem (also starting last night some time), > I'm still running Declude 2.0.5.
