It all depends on your system and your needs.  If TMDA seems to take
an abysmally long time to process a single mail message, you could
consider one of the database formats.  If not, then it doesn't really
matter.

If you want to test whether it makes any sort of difference for you,
you could try the DBM support.  It is built in to Python, so you
wouldn't have to download and build the CDB support module.  Just add
-autodbm after your 'from-file' statement, but before the filename.

from-file -autodbm /path/to/Malcolms/whitelist accept

This will automatically rebuild the whitelist into a DBM file whenever
the whitelist changes and will search the DBM database instead of the
file, if the DBM exists or can be built.

See the 'from-file' docs at http://www.tmda.net/filter-sources.html .
