Wow. I wonder what the cause is ... probably CPU due to heavy regex usage. I wonder if it would be more efficient to iterate over the message for each test or to run each test in parallel with just one iteration over the message. The second would surely require more memory to keep track of each test. Profiling is the only way to be sure. In the current implementation, does SA stop checking a test when it reaches the first match? That may improve the processing time on spam messages. -D -- If your company is not involved in something called "ISO 9000" you probably have no idea what it is. If your company _is_ involved in ISO 9000 then you definitely have no idea what it is.
