S Feb07 0:00 /usr/sbin/cron ... i'd say any unix system without such basic services as a cron daemon is IMHO misconfigured, unless you have *very* special needs, such as a special-purpose embedded system. cron is no significant load on modern machines, and it has a small memory footprint. the one percent memory usage you see here is of a total of 48 megs of ram - the system is very low-spec. you could configure it to run qrunner only every 10 minutes, but i doubt such tweaks are worth it. best, jörn ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py
