To add a third to the mix, I recently came across tumgreyspf[1].  It does SPF 
and Greylisting.  It uses files on the file system, so its "database" is the 
file system.  For high volume sites, you'll want to make sure you're using a 
filesystem that can handle lots of directory entries.  By default it grelists 
on an IP/sender/reciever tuple, but I submitted a patch (coming in the next 
version) that will greylist only by IP.

It's Python, and the code is very clean and straightforward.  It uses the 
Python SPF library for its SPF checking, but can use external program calls 
if need be.

I've installed it and run some tests.  It works really well.  Might want to 
take a look.
