quite often yes. when you have high traffic and a global bayes or global awl, locking can become the problem. for me, it was 1) bayes locking. 2) auto-whitelist locking. i disabled both and now dont have any problems. spamd badly needs a child timeout setting. and awl and bayes need RDMBS support so each request doesnt have to lock the db's... except on inserts of which row-level locking might be an option. dallas ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by OSDN developer relations Here's your chance to show off your extensive product knowledge We want to know what you know.
