[Mailman-Users] CPU Usage in 2.1a2

	I have experienced the same problem recently (v2.0.6), and ended
up
having to disable the Mailman web interface as Python2.1 procs were taking
down my
machine (a mere P75 w/16MB or ram, which may account for the problem).
Unless I killed the processes immediately, all daemons would eventually
shut down (sshd, apache, even login), requiring me to reboot the
machine when I got home.
