Until it died of hardware failure, I had a P150 with qmail, spamc/spamd, and a lightly loaded Apache handling about 6K messages/day. CPU load was always in the .2-.3 range, except after an ISP outage where load was at 50 to 60 for over an hour. -dsr- -- Network engineer / pre-sales engineer available in the Boston area. http://tao.merseine.nu/~dsr ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
