I am using Craig Sanders' mailstats/mrtg scripts for reporting
Postfix usage, and it is producing some very nice graphs.

However, every now and then the process which looks at the syslog file,
update-mailstats.pl, seems to go into run-away mode, grabbing lots
of cpu. Running truss on the process seems to indicate that it is
in a tight loop writing the stats.db file.

Has anyone else seen this behaviour?
