What does this technical term mean?
It means, mailman forks very often, we had over 50 python processes running
(owned by mailman), a few seconds before that there were only the few qrunner
processes running.
A few seconds later they die, but the load while forking and dieing is very
high (we had a load of 37).
Last night it didn't occour, so I can't strace something.
I have mailman running on Debian Woody 3. We have another server running SuSE
8.1 with Mailman, there we haven't any problems. We use the latest stable
version on both machines.
Any idea which of the cron jobs in Mailman's crontab is generating these processes?
How does the time the problem appears correlate with the execution time of the jobs in MM's crontab entries.
