You're doing a LOT better than I am with it. Makes me wonder if I have
something set up wrong. My main SA server has a fast dual core Athlon
and 8 gigs of ram and it can get bogged down rather quickly. I wonder if
I'm doing something wrong ....

Are you running 64bit OS?  If so how stable are things?  I thought
about it to get by the 4Gbyte RAM limit but I chickened out since
Directadmin lists 64bit support as beta.

Here we are running the amd64 FreeBSD v5.5 on a Dell PowerEdge 6850. It is configured with 4x3ghz dual core zeon processors and 12 gig of ram. I have increased the maximum data segment for the OS to 2 gig. It was defaulted at 512 meg. I have set SA to use a max of 40 spamd children and keeping 20 spare laying around. Each child running takes up approximately 120 meg. The server currently handles roughly 3.5 million messages every 24 hours.

I have seen the suggestion recently in this thread to run SA from a ram drive. I am going to experiment with that over the course of this next weekend. I'm not quiet sure how much increase in speed I will get. All of our userprefs, AWL and bayes are stored in MySQL tables.
