You know, that DNS hangy thing reminds me a *lot* of the problems we had
on wwwmaster prior to the move to tribble. Now, I don't think the move
to tribble itself fixed it, but we did upgrade FreeBSD at that time, no?
Does this machine by any chance have the same FreeBSD release as the
*old* wwwmaster?

We used to have monitoring on the mailqueue length on svr1, that could
catch these things. actually, I see that we still have monitoring, but
we've disabled notifications for it. Perhaps we should re-enable that to
keep track ofthings properly?
(Won't work for the notifies sent through -slaves though, since they'll
also get caught in the backlog if that happens)
BTW, I'm seeing much better times this morning. Just did another run,
this is the data for the past 9 hours:
path | count | avg
------------------------------------------------------------+-------+-----
postgresql.org -> mx2.hub.org | 21 | 169
mx2.hub.org -> svr2.hagander.net | 21 | 1
svr2.hagander.net -> svr2.hagander.net | 21 | 0
postgresql.org -> localhost (mx1.hub.org [200.46.204.184]) | 13 | 18
localhost (mx1.hub.org [200.46.204.184]) -> postgresql.org | 13 | 13
localhost (mx1.hub.org [200.46.204.183]) -> postgresql.org | 8 | 6
postgresql.org -> localhost (mx1.hub.org [200.46.204.183]) | 8 | 5
sss.pgh.pa.us (8.14.1/8.14.1) -> postgresql.org | 4 | 15
ug-out-1314.google.com -> postgresql.org | 3 | 1
wdscexfe01.sc.wdc.com -> postgresql.org | 2 | 17
169 seconds is a lot more reasonable. It's still a bit of time, but I
assume that's when it does the spamscanning? (sice it delivers to my
machine in no more than a second after that)
