We are running Ultrix 3.0 on a MicroVax II.  The problem is that if we
are running the syslog process it seems to eat cpu time.  When syslog
is running the load average never goes below 1.  Ps shows that it is
taking up alot of time.  Here is a copy of my syslog.conf

5/dev/console
8/usr/spool/mqueue/syslog

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
