Hi list,
I have a Web- & Mailserver running, the responsetimes even let me drink several coffees, if i request my Mails via squirrelmail.
My Hardware: HP Netserver P3/886 mhz, 128 mb ram
Most consumpting processes: apache, amavisd-new (including virual check), spamd, postfix, cyrus, mysql...see list below

...look at the load average ;-)
i already forked most apps from 8 to 5 back to 3 forks max to save ressources. but i get the impression, that it is just one process, that somehow is just misconfigured...do you have any hints for me?
have you tried to (temp.) disable amavisd to see if it works better then?
btw. i would be very interessted, what the 3 figures on tload effective mean :-)
load averages for the past 1, 5, and 15 minutes.
