As subject says, we are experiencing 100% utilization of some 2.4.4 servers

this always results in error from mod_mime_magic

it happens on ISO files as well - the biggest issue on mirror server,

but an example is
mod_mime_magic: read failed from uncompress of /ftpmirrors/bind/mkdir

tested this myself from home, and lynx reports waiting for content,
just sits there forever, whilst cpu on server goes into overdive

never had this problem on earlier versions.

why is mod_mime_magic being used at all?  it is known to be a dog

is a mime type missing from your isos that was present in your pre-2.4 setup?  was the path to the magic file commented out or missing from your pre-2.4 setup but present in your 2.4.4 configuration?  was the loadmodule for mod_mime_magic.so commented out or missing from your pre-2.4 setup?
