Based on your information that your FaxAccounting scripts are a 
meaningful part of the problem it would appear that using -a is not 
going to help.

As you use FaxAccounting you'd lose that feature with .org releases.

Constant 99% CPU usage by faxq after disabling FaxAccounting?  Well, 
then try the 'sendfax -a' test, I suppose.

FaxAccounting wasn't meant to do heavy-lifting.  It was designed to 
allow a simple interface into an accounting process... like putting 
xferfaxlog records into a database.

So what, exactly, are you doing in FaxAccounting that is causing such a 
drag?

Using notify is a bad way to perform accounting procedures.  If you 
don't use FaxAccounting then the next-best option is to parse xferfaxlog 
independently.

Thanks,
