[Dxspider-support] System is I/O bound again

[Michael Walker]

Something is happening on Thursday nights.  Very strange.  There are no
cron jobs running and any command takes over a minute to execute.  su

Sysop owns many perl executions.  Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I will look through the messages log again and see if anything looks
unusual.
