I am still getting spammed processes that last for hours or days. When I kill them, `kill -9` they come back after the load drops. The processes use 100% of the processor.
nobody 72041 100.0 2.2 87264 76940 - R 10:36 35:28.97 spamd child (perl) root 52954 0.0 1.9 76992 67124 - I 13:41 0:01.60 spamd child (perl) root 55342 0.0 0.2 24904 7828 - Ss Sun15 0:06.06 /usr/local/sbin/spamass-milter -f -p /var/run/spamass-milter.sock -u spamd -r 10 -i 65.121.55.40/29 -i 127.0.0.1 -e covisp.net root 73409 0.0 2.1 84860 75240 - I Wed20 0:59.01 spamd child (perl) root 84607 0.0 1.8 73880 63700 - Ss Tue01 0:20.77 /usr/local/bin/perl -T -w /usr/local/bin/spamd -c -H /var/spool/spamd -d -r /var/run/spamd/spamd.pid The only way to get rid of it is to stop spamd and restart it. Running SA 3.4.2 on FreeBSD 11.3 with no updates pending. I tried updating perl, but that did not work at all, it appears SA can’t use perl 5.30. I’ve just setup cron to stop/start sa-spamd periodically until I figure out why this is happening. What is starting spamd as nobody instead of root like the other processes? -- Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup
