[BUG] mailman_web cron tasks now take up to 20 min while it used to be a few seconds

[pini-gh]

Hi,

Tag/version of Container Images
0.5

Our mailman instance has been running a few private mailing lists with very little traffic since 2020. Suddenly a few days ago mailman_web cron tasks started to take from about 10min to 20min.

Important note
It seems this behavior started after I upgraded the host from Debian 12 (bookworm) to Debian 13 (trixie). But I fail to see how it is related. Any help to pin that down appreciated.
