If you rewrite it in C, then perhaps (depends on the source of memory
usage and your coding skills) it would use less memory. I think much
of it is due to storing all the rules (I assume the regexes are
pre-compiled too) in memory so that they don't need to be loaded when
a message arrives.
$ ps aux | grep spamd
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND
root 8834 0.0 0.7 11268 1820 ? S Mar26 0:04 /usr/bin/perl
/usr/sbin/spamd -d -F 0
If I restart it,
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND
root 5208 0.0 3.6 11328 9236 ? S 09:52 0:00 /usr/bin/perl

Apparently the VSZ field didn't change over the last 3 days. I'm not
sure what "VSZ" means in this context, though.
If I use gtop I get a Size and RSS of 9236 with 1624 as shared memory.
No AWL here.
