I think in general each new (semi-major) release of SA is a little
slower than the last, so if nothing else were to change, I think this
would make matters slightly worse. I think 3.1.x does a much better job
at stopping spam however.

I assume your system is tuned to the optimum number of $max_servers?
What is the average load and available ram situation like? How many
$max_servers are you running?

Did you ever move Bayes to MySQL (not that you have the extra memory
needed to run it at this point)? If not, are you at least using a
better lock_method than nfssafe (if appropriate on your platform):

Are you using AWL? If so, do you trim auto-whitelist on occasion?
