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?
