I have been running a test server with Linux, Sendmail, Mailman.  I have
been doing a loadtest of sorts where I am sending out 20 messages every
minute to a single list.  The messages are getting delivered, archived,
etc... The job has been running for 24 hours now.  This morning I was
looking at disk space and noticed this:

[mailman at listserv mailman]$ cd qfiles
[mailman at listserv qfiles]$ du -h .
253M    .

[mailman at listserv qfiles]$ ls |wc -l
  42818


Why do I have so many db/msg files?  I could not find anything in the
FAQ about this....
