[rt-users] RT slows down over time

[John Arends]

My RT installation (using mod_perl, RHEL 5) seems to slow down over 
time. Restarting the Apache process restores performance.

Any suggestions on how to begin troubleshooting this? Could it be a 
mod_perl issue or a mason issue?

The machine get so slow when this happens that if I try to SSH in, I 
have to sit and wait for 10 seconds before the password prompt will come up.
