This system is running 4 bzip2s on 4 300MB files
simultaneously. The
numbers shown by top don't add up to anything remotely
usable - take a
look at the load.

And yes, the bug has been filed at redhat:

Thanks Ralph. I know it isn't a lack of work, as the
other poster seems to think.
The bug number you posted shows as invalid. Can you
repost?
Thanks,

Your webmail service doesn't cope with "quoted-printable" mail content;
"=3D" is the encoding for a single equals sign (and the angle brackets
are not part of the URL, of course).  So the bug ID is 109484.

No, it is valid. Your "mail client" broke it.

http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=109484

If you see a "3D" in that URL, then drop that.
