In your amavisd.conf file, set $sa_tag_level_deflt to -99.0 to get
the X-Spam-Status header added to all emails.

It's not slower because amavisd preloads the SpamAssassin module once at 
startup,
similar to what spamd does. The performance hit comes when loading the
SA module for each messages.

You can still have a local.cf and user_prefs file even when amavisd is
used. Just put user_prefs in a .spamassassin directory under amavisd's
home directory (the same place your bayes databases are). For instance,
on my system:

# ls -l /var/lib/amavis/.spamassassin         
total 20588
-rw-r-----    1 amavis   amavis      37134 Mar  1 07:48 bayes_journal
-rw-r-----    1 amavis   amavis   20934656 Mar  1 07:48 bayes_seen
-rw-------    1 amavis   amavis    4521984 Mar  1 07:48 bayes_toks
-rw-r-----    1 amavis   amavis        762 Jan 18 11:32 user_prefs

What you don't get (any maybe this is what you were alluding to) is
per user preferences.
