[spf-discuss] SPF/postfix iowait > 90%

2006-10-25 08:07:29
I have setup spf in postfix and found that it almost killed my server raising the iowait at more than 90% putting the server on its knees.

If i disable the spf filtering then the server is happy and everything works fine.

I think that maybe the iowait is due to the delay that exists in the DNS replies to the SPF process, my server recives more than 100k mails on a daily basis, and i have a caching DNS on this same server.

So my question is:

Has anybody found this kind of problems on their servers, and if postiive how you solve it ?
