I use a dual P-III 1GHz, 1GB RAM. I churn as many as 80,000 messages a day through spamassassin using spamc/spamd called from procmail with a load avg. of 1-2, sometimes spiking higher during a big spam. Sendmail is the MTA and there is no virus filtering on this box (that happens before it gets to this box). The only other things running on this box are POP and IMAP daemons. With this config I am not doing RBL checks, MX checks, or Razor checks, so that may make a difference.
