Can anyone enlighten me about why the qrunner process might need a
tremendous amount of memory?  Running Mailman 2.0 on a FreeBSD 4.1.1-STABLE
server with Python 2.0.  There are about 1500 lists, but the qfiles
directory only has 32 files in it.  Nonetheless, each minute when qrunner
runs, it looks like this in top:

59606 mailman   -2  20   135M 74456K getblk   0:01  8.93%  3.52% python

135 MB?  It seems excessive.  Any insight would be appreciated :)

Thanks,
Kevin
