Ok,

I do have a post on the SA list on this as well, but I thought I'd try to tap other 
expereinced QS+SA admins out there as the SA list hasn't produced any meaningful 
responses.

If I run fast_spamassassin I get messages scanned in an acceptable amount of time 
(using DNS tests, auto whitelist and bayes) in the range of 3-6 seconds.  If I run 
verbose_spamassassin I get results varying from 60-600 seconds!  The only difference 
that I see in the two is that in fast mode $spamc_options gets the "-c" flag and in 
verbose it doesn't, otherwise QS code is exactly the same.  

I turned on the fast option but my users are used to the spam reports and it's nice 
when someone reports a false positive to have the report so you can figure out why, so 
I'm hoping to go back to verbose mode if I can figure out why this is happening.  

When testing fast vs. verbose, spamd runs just as fast, but spamc waits and waits and 
waits for something before giving the connection back to QS.  Debug mode in spamd 
doesn't help because spamd does it's thing in 3-6 seconds and does nothing while spamc 
is semi-hanging.  spamc does not have a -D option.  :(

I think it's a Debian perl issue (5.6.1), but no one can confirm this.  I'd upgrade to 
5.8 but apt-get and perl make me nervous.

I've tried running with the setuid wrapper, local tests only for spamd, rebooting, 
rebuilding qs, rebuilding sa, and it always comes out the same.

One thing I did notice is that it seems like there is always a qmail-scanner process 
running on the Debian box, while on my other box (SuSE) when QS isn't doing anything, 
there are no QS procs.
