Hello,
 
After downloading and installing the latest version of mailman-2.1.12rc1
and I'm using Apache-2.2-11 and
Postfix-2.3.3-2.1.el5_2. On CentOS 5.2 (RedhHat) for some reason I can't
understand the CPU usage is
at 96% for mailman. When I do a top I get:
 
top - 11:18:13 up 16:38,  1 user,  load average: 2.78, 2.76, 2.62

When I search for that PID I get this:
 
# ps -ef | grep 4949
mailman   4949  4938 94 Feb03 ?        15:44:50 /usr/bin/python2.4
/opt/software/mailman/bin/qrunner --runner=IncomingRunner:0:1 -s

I've search the archives but I haven't seen an up to date resolution.
Can anyone help.
 
Bill
