-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello,
I am having trouble with a slow outgoing queue. I am running Mailman 2.1.6 on FreeBSD 4.11. Here is an example of a slow email traced through Mailman's logs: At 10:18, a message is sent to the moderated "students" list I host, and held: logs/vette:Nov 08 10:18:28 2005 (3640) Students post from [EMAIL PROTECTED] held, message-id=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Post to moderated list At 10:24 the moderator approved the message for posting: logs/vette:Nov 08 10:24:25 2005 (91201) held message approved, message-id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> At this point, if I understand correctly, the message should be sitting in queue/out, waiting for a queue-runner process to send it out. There were between 80 and 100 .pck files in queue/out at this time. What is the outgoing qrunner doing? Eating RAM, mainly: # ps auxwww | grep OutgoingRunner mailman 3641 1.2 9.5 107680 99240 ?? S 13Oct05 288:04.50 /usr/local/bin/python /usr/local/mailman/bin/qrunner - --runner=OutgoingRunner:0:1 -s That process appeared to remain fairly idle, using over 100M of RAM for almost an hour: logs/post:Nov 08 11:18:45 2005 (3641) post to students from [EMAIL PROTECTED], size=5383, message-id=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, success And finally, actual delivery went out at a modest but acceptable 6msg/sec logs/smtp:Nov 08 11:18:45 2005 (3641) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> smtp to students for 1642 recips, completed in 252.164 seconds Any idea what is causing the holdup for outgoing messages? Any tips that will help me trace this down? Thanks in advance. - H -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (Darwin) iD8DBQFDcQEtOy/dHTCUq6oRAjD1AKDUxhuEyoQHKrriyC3rh6GvQH9BowCgpjXH NQ65NkHkjMQqn9xyekh0nIw= =p0qL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
