After installing filedaemon and file tools on my Gentoo Linux machine,
the picture looks much the same with a 64-bit Linux build.  Usage of all
resources by bscan is down in the noise level, and it is *crawling*.  I
have the spool directory mounted via NFS to this machine (fast,
well-performing NFS over gigabit Ethernet), and there is virtually no
NFS traffic.  There is almost no file I/O happening.  I'm seeing less
than 1kb/s transfer for up to 30 seconds at a time interspersed by
occasional reads of 256kb or so once or twice a minute, from an NFS
server that can saturate 100Mbit Ethernet.  CPU usage attributable to
bscan is scarcely detectible against the background.

Do we have a performance problem with bscan in 5.2.x?  Possibly some
file I/O bottleneck?  Can anyone else reproduce this slow bscan performance?
