SpamAssassin now recommends an environment variable setting like "export LANG=en_US" be made when unicode support is not needed, for performance reasons, as of the migration to Perl 5.8, which uses unicode by default at some expense to SpamAssassin's performance. I'm trying to figure out the best way to make that setting apply to spamd, the SpamAssassin daemon. From my read of docs and my scan of /usr/local/etc/rc.subr, I don't think throwing the setting into spamd_flags in /etc/rc.conf will work; that would look like this:
spamd_flags="LANG=en_US -c -d -m 3 -r /var/run/spamd.pid" but I'm hoping either I'm wrong or there's a similarly easy solution. Reason for interest: I'm running SpamAssassin on an old P166, and as of my latest port upgrade, its performance dropped dramatically, and it actually began interfering with day-to-day activities on this old box. I'm hoping the unicode evasion will help with that, though I don't know how likely this is. Please Cc replies to me.
