I've been running SA on a Cobalt Qube since 2.42 was current, and it's been a wonderful solution. Recently I moved to running spamd -d to because of the increased load the increase in spam was putting on the server. Now that's not cutting it- they're hitting me so hard I'm seeing processor loads in the 30's, and my poor little Qube is buckling under the load- I can't ssh in, email exchanges time out, ect.
What else can I do to make SA run as quickly as possible- besides the obvious "buy a bigger server"?
Thanks,
Hi Steve,
What model Qube, how many users, what version of SA?
I'm running a Q3 w/512M and 56 users all individual Bayes and User_prefs and my load is .1. Sometimes it gets to 1.5 if I'm under a spamstorm but usually it isn't even breathing hard. We're averaging 3200 messages a day with spam accounting for 66% of the load.

OK, I must be doing something wrong! This is a Qube 3 Pro, 384M, 40 users, shared Bayes. SA 2.63. BigEvil, BlackHair, evilnumbers, popcorn all included. I see under 2K messages/day, about 70-80% spam.
I need to run the test message through spamassassin -D and see where it hangs.... but I can't remember where the default message lives. Anyone want to jog my memory?
