Who defines what is "too long"?

The commands "ps ax" or "top" will show you (under the "time" column) how long 
a process has been running.

I see no reason to complain about a process simply because it's been running 
for a long time - so long as it is still running and doing its job, then I 
regard that as ver acceptable.

What is the "problem" with a long-running process?

Can you configure LFD to know that you don't care if spamd has been running for 
a long time - that's what it's supposed to do?
