Eg http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=4237 >and http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=4316 I have one log rotate about 0400 here and a full restart of the mail system at 0500 every day to keep things happy and I'm seeing this later in the day say 9-10am so I don't think its log rotate related. Those bugs are not what I'm seeing, I'm seeing totally stuck in K state children that won't go away until you go out and start killing procs.
