Subject: [Exim] how to limit exim instances number
Hello,
I run debian testing.

I have an exim4 server running, and it "sucks" up to 90% system CPU so
that the website hosted on the same machine slows down as hell.
I would like to strongly limit the CPU ressources taken by exim4. What
should be the best way ?

Limiting max threads (how to ?) ? Because i noticed there was many many
exim threads running at the same time ...

Renicing (changing down, very down, priority) of all exim4 processes
(how ?) ?

Thank you for your help ...
