In /var/qmail/control create a file called concurrencyremote and concurrencysmtpd. The contents looks like this....
[EMAIL PROTECTED] control]# cat concurrencyremote 2
I know under load on slower machines qmail comes to a griding halt when a whole lot of qmail-scanner instances are running. If your CPU is being hoged and you have many smtpd connections the qmail-scanner processes will be starved and thus causing your box to grind to a halt.
The output below seems ok.

Is that "-c 20" what I'm hunting for to limit the inbound connections? I know where it is in the qmail supervise scripts, presumably it just means that we'll be throttling mail delivery somewhat? Obviously I'm looking for a cure for the hang, so would setting it down to say, 5, be too aggressive?
