Is Spamassassin invoked from Mailman or from the MTA before Mailman? If this plain Mailman, 10 seconds is a hugely long time to process a single post through IncomingRunner. If you have some Spamassassin interface like <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=640518&group_id=103&atid=300103> that calls spamd from a Mailman handler, you might consider moving Spamassassin ahead of Mailman and using something like <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=840426&group_id=103&atid=300103> or just header_filter_rules instead. >Is there an easy way to parallelize what looks like a single serialized >Mailman queue? >I see some posts re: multi-slice but nothing definitive See the section of Defaults.py headed with ##### # Qrunner defaults ##### In order to run multiple, parallel IncomingRunner processes, you can either copy the entire QRUNNERS definition from Defaults.py to mm_cfg.py and change ('IncomingRunner', 1), # posts from the outside world to ('IncomingRunner', 4), # posts from the outside world which says run 4 IncomingRunner processes, or you can just add something like QRUNNERS[QRUNNERS.index(('IncomingRunner',1))] = ('IncomingRunner',4) to mm_cfg.py. You can use any power of two for the number. >I would also like the option of working this into an overall loadbalancing >scheme where I have multiple smtp nodes behind an F5 loadbalancer and the >nodes share an NFS backend...
