Continued digging lead me to FAQ 4.41....how recent is this. Does anyone else still run into this on the newer versions? I'll talk to some of my list owners and I can change the default, but I was wondering if I was chasing a false lead? (Another note, most of the lists are fewer than 100 members)

Hi Anne:
It doesn't seem your load is that high (1.49 15 minute avg.) and you have plenty of memory left. There isn't that many running processes (153) either. Is this a dedicated server used only for mailman or is this a shared hosting environment? According to your top output, your server should be keeping up fine with any messages being sent to mailman.
Kind regards, Brian Carpenter

It appears my archive runner is flipping out today. It is hogging the CPU and can't seem to keep up with the messages. I restarted mailman and it doesn't seem to have helped. It doesn't appear as if we are seeing any unusual traffic, so I can't think of what would cause this.
It isn't completely stuck...it's processing messages, just really slowly and taking lots of CPU to do it. We are using Exim version 4.43 on RHEL 4 and mailman version 2.1.9rc1.
