I've been experiencing and documenting a pretty severe performance problem with SA versions 3.0.1 through 3.1x (nightly) under Solaris 8 and 9, Perl 5.8.3.
Ran the test differently and got different results. I sent the 573 messages from a different host. Both the send and the processing in MD finished in a fraction of the time required for my earlier test. Everything still seemed fine. What do you think?
