Classification: PUBLIC OK. Here's the resolution.
The problem was that Razor kept doing a discovery each pass. When I did a razor-admin -d -discover it did not write to the catalogue and nominated files. It turns out that two .lock files were in there (for whatever reason) as stopped these from being updated. The other problem was the Razor zone was incorrect for Razor2. It should be: razor2.cloudmark.com. My config file had the old Razor1 domain. This is now fixed. Now my average is under 1 second for the Razor test. FWIW: How I troubleshot this problem In the ~/.razor/razor-agent.conf file I set: logfile = razor-agent.log debuglevel = 15 In the /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf file I set: timelog_path /tmp/satiming razor_config ~/.razor/razor-agent.conf By looking at the timing logs written to /tmp/satiming, I saw that razor2 was the delay point. By setting razor debug level to 15, verbose debug is written by razor to razor-agent.log. By looking at the razor-agent.log, I saw that the two files weren't being written to. Be sure to set debuglevel back to 5 for transactions or 1 for startup and errors only <<Dan>> |-----Original Message----- |From: Smart, Dan |Sent: Monday, November 04, 2002 11:49 AM |To: Theo Van Dinter; Smart, Dan |Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] |Subject: RE: [SAtalk] Public Razor2 is slow as Christmas | | |Classification: PUBLIC | |I'm located on a T-1 into the AT&T Atlanta hub.
