The majority of the time spent in SA is in the pattern matching, and that's mostly done in C already (inside the perl interpreter). The glue stuff around that is not going to speed things up much. The real killer is in reducing the startup time. If you invoke SA once per message it will kill you. If you have pre-existing SA instances to which you hand off your message for evaluation, you're much better off, and shouldn't take much time processing the messages (aside from DNS lookups). _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas - http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm?source=osdntextlink _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
