Note that updating the postscreen CIDR table requires that you
restart postfix to read the new table.

Frequent restarts of postfix are very bad for performance on a busy
mailserver.

I would suggest putting "provisional" blocks in a
check_client_access table in one of the smtpd_*_restrictions
sections.  Postfix will pick up changes to those tables without a
restart.  Later, those blocks can be promoted to a firewall or
postscreen block.
