Contrary to your results, I tested 14.02 on my W2K3 server, and it died with the IO Poll error within 5 minutes, however it was the Main_Thread that died, not one of the worker threads. It was OK running under low "Sunday night" load and ran without problems, but when I ran it under Monday morning load, it died with the IO Poll error within 5 minutes.

As for subject I downloaded the above version and
gave it a spin; the platform is:

win2k3, Intel Xeon 2.8 Ghz, 2Gb RAM

Active Perl 5.8.8; all needed modules installed (or at least
the ASSP logged an "all ok"); ASSP running as a service

Started up the ASSP, it took some seconds to startup
all the threads but started ok; had a look at the connections
page, saw that ASSP was suggesting to increase the number
of workers to 10, so changed that and restarted ASSP, then
I left it run for some hours and was happy to see that those
darn "IO poll" error didn't pop up as for previous version
but then ...

After some hours ASSP died; no error was logged and
there was no other info, perl just suddenly died; so I think
there must be some "bug" crashing the code

That said; and looking at the time the code was running,
I can say that the latest 2.0.0 seems good (aside from that
crash); there's only one thing I'd like to report

Whenever you change whatever setting on the WEB admin
GUI, each ASSP thread start reloading all the infos, so the
log shows each thread reloading the VRFY domain list and
so on; now... this seems to imply that each thread has its own
copy of the config settings... am I correct ? And does such a
thing also apply to the bayes database and to the various
lists (eg black helo, IPs and so on) ?

If so, I think that it's a waste of memory; it would imVHo be a
better idea setting up a common, shared "pool" containing all
those data and allow all the threads to access it; such a thing
would help reducing the memory fingerprint and would also
avoid reloading the same data over and over
