Summary: Slow speed when scoring email

Initial Comment:
I am running version 1.0.1 of Spambayes plug-in for
Outlook on Windows XP Professional with 1GB of ram.

When I open Outlook and it connects to my pop server it
seems to take a very long time to download and score
the email messages.   During this time I notice that
the hard drive is working very hard and Outlook becomes
unresponsive.

I usually have about 60 - 70 email messages on the pop
server when I connect to download.   My database has
923 good and 458 spam messages.   The accurace rate is
about perfect, but the speed really makes checking my
email a long process.

I have tired using both with and without the background
filter.   I prefer to not use the background filter.

If I leave Outlook open, it seems to process the
incoming messages fine.   I only see the slowdown when
Outlook is downloading several emails at once.

I have seen some references to using alternate
databases.  Would that help increase the speed?  If so,
what databases are supported on Windows and how do I
change the database it uses?

Users of the 1.0.x binaries cannot change which database
type is used, sorry.  (1.1, when it is out, will allow this).

The database types that are supported are: bsddb (the
default), pickle, mySQL, postgreSQL, ZODB, and ZOE (not
fully tested yet).

A pickle will take more memory, and will be slower to
load/store the database, but will be faster in scoring.  I
have no idea whether the SQL/ZODB database backends would be
faster than bsddb or not.

However, it really shouldn't be that slow.  What do you call
a "very long time"?  Does the log have any error messages?
