What if I turn off dovecot just while the newsletter is going out? it uses postfix to send so it shouldn't hurt anything, right?

It seems deliver is taking up a lot of cpu.
It probably shouldn't be. See what it's doing with e.g. strace? http://wiki.dovecot.org/Debugging/ProcessTracing
Also show your dovecot -n output.
Is there a way to throttle just the delivery command?
Run "nice deliver" instead?
