??? But spamd is written in pure Perl -- there's not an ounce of C there. So you're saying that invoking spamc, which involves a fork and exec, followed by transmitting the message to the Perl spamd and getting the answer back, is faster than calling the Perl API directly? I don't doubt your measurements, but they must have been done under some pretty strange conditions.
