One of my concerns with Debian is that Python programs tend to be closely coupled with Python versions. I was concerned that I might be in a position where I'd be stuck in a version of Debian that wouldn't work with a new version of Python (and hence Mailman).
If you need to keep an old version of Python on the system, you can always install a newer version somewhere else, and configure Mailman to use that instead of the normal one. That shouldn't be too much work.
(To be fair to the Powerbook, I was also asking it to be a laptop at the time. It could not handle heavy-duty web browsing at the same time it was handling peak Mailman loads. Moving VERP from Mailman to exim and setting up a caching name server solved the problem.)
/me wonders how much of the performance difference was due to letting Exim handle the VERP as opposed to setting up a caching nameserver.
