Actually, you would gain a tiny bit -- if a spamc call happens at the moment when spamd is dead and not yet re-listening on the port, then you'll have a message or two not filtered (depending on load and timing). If spamd re-reads its config file without stopping listening on the port, then though it might take a little longer for those messages to get processed which come in during the reload, at least they will get processed. Now in practice, who gives a crap if one or two messages don't get filtered. But still, it would be nice to knock out http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=469
