[net.bugs.4bsd] Mail/Sendmail Is it really this slow?

ptw@encore.UUCP (P. Tucker Withington) (02/06/85)

I just used my fancy digital watch to time the distance between ^D and & when
using mail to deliver a letter:  36 sec.!  Neither Mail nor sendmail takes
anything like this to invoke directly, and I have frozen my config file.
Should I keep looking, or is it really this slow?  What's it doing all that
time?

I don't remember it being that bad, and wonder if I can attribute any of the
problem to my nifty new 750/RA81 combo...
