[AMaViS-user] SA timeout? (might be pure SA issue)

Hi all.

This might be better suited for the SA-list, but I don't know if Amavis
is a playing a role here so I'll give it a try here as well.

I'm occasionally seeing amavis processes that hang for 10 minutes,
utilizing 100% CPU due to some SA issue. After 10 minutes an error shows
in the log:

Oct 25 18:36:19 mx1 amavis[20684]: (20684) ClamAV-clamd result: clean

We are running AWL locally as a file, and it's currently 1.3GB large.
The setup is Amavis 2.5.2, SA 3.1.9, Sendmail pre-queue with
amavisd-milter 1.3.1 on RHEL 5.

In /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf we have:
lock_method flock

Any ideas? I didn't find much on google. Amavisd-nanny shows the process
like this, before it's terminated:

PID 20684: 20684 0:09:35 =========:=========:=========:===S>

We have max_servers set to 15.

Thanks a bunch all!
