Sounds like you are spawning into a lot child processes and hitting
the swap file.  Try limiting the number of child processes ( -m # I
believe) to something reasonable at first (say 10) and see if it
helps, then adjust upward from there if it does.
    

Thanks, I updated spamd to run as follows:

spamd -d -D -q -x -L --socketpath=/var/spool/spamassassin/spamd.sock -m 6 -u spamd

date ; spamc -f -U /var/spool/spamassassin/spamd.sock -u "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" < sample-spam.txt ; date

3+ minutes - better than 10, but still pretty dang long.  This machine is a dual proc (2 2.4 Ghz Xeon) with a Gig of memory running very few other programs (mysql, apache, qmail), I can't believe that this is a hardware limitation.

Any other thoughts?

Josh
