Hello spamhunters, i upgraded two mailservers from 3.0.4 to 3.1.0.
Like others on this mailing list, i am having a performance issue. platform: Spamasassin 3.1.0 (upgraded from ports) Perl 5.8.6 FreeBSD 5.4 qmail + vpopmail + qmail-scanner Both server have 1Go of Ram and two Xeon 2,4 with HTT enabled. Everything goes fine after spamd started. But after a while, spamd processes takes the whole CPU until i kill them. i got something like that: PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE C TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND 14228 vpopmail 114 0 28048K 26524K CPU0 0 23.5H 99.02% 99.02% perl5.8.6 14229 vpopmail 114 0 26876K 25420K CPU2 2 23.3H 99.02% 99.02% perl5.8.6 I removed all *.cf rules i always use to keep it fast but anyway, after a while, it's away. in the log file: spamc[52447]: connect(AF_INET) to spamd at 127.0.0.1 failed, retrying (#1 of 3): Operation timed out Does anyone knows what's the hell is going on ? Does anyone got better performance with perl 5.8.7 ? I read somewhere that spamassassin changed the way to fork process, and know is similar to apache httpd. Is it linked ? Hope to read good news from all of you Mathieu CHATEAU
