I'm running SpamAssassin v3.3.1. A message with 500 lines of text (22k) is taking 6-7 seconds.
This is using spamc. I am using a Bayes DB (no auto expire/learn) that's stored in SQL. User preferences are also stored in SQL. I have skip_rbl_checks on. I am using only the official rules from updates.spamassassin.org and I am using sa-compile. I've also disabled all of these rules: score URIBL_SBL 0 score URIBL_SC_SURBL 0 score URIBL_PH_SURBL 0 score URIBL_AB_SURBL 0 score URIBL_JP_SURBL 0 score URIBL_OB_SURBL 0 score URIBL_WS_SURBL 0 score URIBL_BLACK 0 score URIBL_RED 0 score URIBL_GREY 0 I tried disabling Bayes checks as well. The message still took 5.5-6.5 seconds to finish scanning. I'm testing scan time using: time spamc -E -u skenn...@office.vcn.com < ./testmail.txt The server I am testing this on is a AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ w/ 2GB of memory. I am testing this while the server is otherwise idle. Does anyone have any other ideas what could be causing this to go that slow? I would expect 1s or less for a plain-text 22k message. Thanks, Sean
