I experienced the same problem last night, only mine was much worse. At
around 2:30 AM, my pager start going nuts because the server had spawned
hundreds of spamd processes, all trying to connect to the razor server.
Thhis has happened once before in the past too. I can't run spamd with the
-m flag, because it cores. How is everyone else that is running spamd w/
razor handling the fact that when razor goes down, spamd doesn't timeout
properly, or not for a very long time, and the system can run low on
resources as more and more processes are started? For now I've completely
disabled razor, until I can come up with a solution that sanely handles
problems with a connection to the razor server. Anyone have any
suggestions?
