Hi all,

Around a month ago, I set up a new server and installed dspam on it.
Things have been running smoothly until today, when suddenly the
performance of dspam has slowed to a crawl. Even simple messages take a
few seconds to process (when they used to go by instantaneously), and a
single HTML or base64-encoded message can send my load average up to 5.

Any thoughts as to how this might have happened? I'm quite sure that the
character of my email traffic hasn't suddenly changed, and the rest of
the system seems to be functioning smoothly. Can dspam learn enormous
tokens, and if it did so, would that slow down subsequent processing?

System config info below.

Thanks for any ideas,

Peter
