OK, after more poking and prodding, it looks like the problem is related to the private/<list>/database directory.
The "article" file here for the list that was causing the problems was 44M, the author was 51K, date was 41K, subject was 55K, and thread was 42k. I moved all those files aside and ran qrunner, and it didn't pause there at all, although it has paused for lesser amounts of time in other (also larger) lists. I guess that the size of this list is simply overwhelming the pipermail archiver. Is there anything I can do about this short of disabling archives? Can I update the archives less often, or do it with a separate process somehow so that at least my mail keeps flowing even while the archive is being updated? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
