Well, whatever your bayes_path is set to... (note it's not really a path, 
really more of a filename-prefix)

Once you get beyond a certain traffic level the BerkeleyDB implementation of 
the Bayes database becomes a bottleneck and you need to move to a SQL-daemon 
database.  This requires more memory for the SQL daemon threads (mySQL, 
PostgreSQL, what-have-you) but pays off in spades by eliminating file locking 
wait times.

So with a SQL database you can't have as many MIMEDefang threads running, but 
they can process mail faster so you don't have to.

Check the SpamAssassin wiki or lists to see more about SQL-based-Bayes.
