--- Comment #5 from Frédéric Buclin <LpSolit at netscape dot net> 2012-06-11 11:36:20 UTC --- fche told me on IRC that jobqueue has been disabled two weeks ago, which is exactly when the slowness started to appear. So it may still be mail-related. But a SMTP server shouldn't need more than a few seconds to send only 2 emails. fche also told me that the SMTP server is doing some spam checks for outgoing emails. I wonder if that could be the reason. Still investigating...
