Re: [Declude.JunkMail] CPU Usage

2003-01-23 Thread R. Scott Perry


Were seeing Declude today take up loads of CPU Usage and making Imail 
unstable
Has anyone seen this before or a way of limiting how many processes 
Declude will open
Cpu usage it will use

Have you gone to the Processes tab of the Task Manager, and clicked on the 
CPU button to sort the processes by CPU usage?  Most likely, it isn't 
Declude.exe (or isn't just Declude.exe) causing the high CPU usage.

What version of Declude are you running (\IMail\Declude -diag from a 
command prompt will show you)?  How many E-mails do you send/receive each day?

If you want to limit the number of Declude.exe processes that can be 
running simultaneously, you would need to change the IMail registry entry 
that limits it (see http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/IM-19980302-ES01.htm ).

Title: Message



Gareth,

We 
sometimes see Declude using 100% CPU however, this is normal when someone is 
sending a lot of mail through the server i.e a large mail shot. It normally 
doesn't pose a problem, except mail delivery might be slower than normal until 
the queue is cleared. You can fine tune your system a little by modifying Imail 
queue timer to a higher value during peak usage and then bring it back to 30 
mins. although I'm not sure it'll make a huge difference. The problem is most 
likely a user pushing through large volumes of email, you may want to check that 
your mail server isn't acting as an open relay. Use domlist.exe to provide a 
usage report for starters. 

Regards,

David

Ah yeah there's load of processes but I was wrong its more SMTP and
iwebmsg.exe
By the looks of it its handling lots of mail

What version of Declude are you running (\IMail\Declude -diag from a 
command prompt will show you)?  How many E-mails do you send/receive each
day?

1.66 from what I can see on a average day 15,000 sent and 20,000 received ;)
yes busy server

If you want to limit the number of Declude.exe processes that can be 
running simultaneously, you would need to change the IMail registry entry 
that limits it (see http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/IM-19980302-ES01.htm ).

Dropped it down to 15 for now see if that helps

Thanks for your help

You are correct; it sounds like you have a high mail volume.

Scanning that volume shouldn't normally be a problem.  My guess is that the 
E-mail is coming in spurts -- such as a user sending out a few hundred 
E-mails all at once.
