[hylafax-users] faxq spooler performance issues

[Mike Tkachuk <mike@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello All,

  I experience a problem with high cpu load by faxq process when there is a
  lot of jobs in send queue.

  Here is some info about configuration:
   - Fax batching is disabled.
   - I use 48 t38modems
   - Machine is P4 2.8, 1G RAM, IDE.
    
  The load is not linear, and not depends from amount of concurrent
  faxes that are actually sending in a moment of time.
  For example:
   - with 500 faxes in send queue (all 48 modems are loaded with faxes
   and sending), faxq process CPU load ~ 20%, UNIX load averages (uptime
   command) < 1
   - with 5000 faxes in send queue (all 48 modems are loaded too)
   faxq process average CPU load is close to 100%, UNIX load averages
   (uptime command) vary from 3 to 6.

   Do anyone expect same behavior? Any fixes?
